provision hereof or of the Regulations of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of a given series modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall be
deemed to apply to this Indenture and the relevant Regulations as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. 
 Nothing
in the Regulations of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of any series or duties of the Commissioner of such Syndicate will limit or restrict the ability of the Trustee to perform its duties as Trustee under the Indenture and, in the event of

Securities of such series and to have granted full power and authority to the Trustee with respect to Securities of such series to act as its proxy to vote at the first meeting of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of such series in favor of
ratifying the Regulations in respect of such Syndicate, the designation and appointment of such Trustee as Commissioner of such Syndicate and the actions of the Commissioner of such Syndicate performed prior to such first meeting of such Syndicate.

incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under the Regulations of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of any series, except to the extent
that any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith or except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense is incurred pursuant to the request or direction of the Holders of Securities of any series or
the Syndicate established with respect to such series of Securities. The Company agrees to reimburse the Commissioner for the expenses set forth in Article XIII of the form of Regulations for the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of each series.
The Company’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the execution of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities of any series or the related Guarantees.

Holders of Securities of the affected series as provided herein.

INDENTURE. 
 This Security may not be offered or sold in the Kingdom of Spain by means of a public offer (as defined and
construed by Spanish law) and may only be offered or sold in the Kingdom of Spain in compliance with the requirements of Law 24/1988 of July 28, 1988 (as amended from time to time) on the Spanish Securities Market and Royal Decree 1310/2005 of
November 4, 2005 on listing in secondary markets, public offers and the prospectus required for those purposes. 

Section 2.05. Form of Guarantee. The Guarantee to be endorsed on the Securities of each series of
Securities shall be in substantially the following form: 
 GUARANTEE 

THIS GUARANTEE is made on         , 20     by Banco Bilbao Vizcaya
Argentaria, S.A. (the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed) in favor of the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee
is endorsed (“this Security”). This Guarantee is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture dated July 25, 2013 among BBVA Subordinated Capital, S.A. Unipersonal, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon, as
Trustee, as supplemented from time to time (the “Indenture”), and each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions. Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 (a) Guarantee. The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each
Holder of this Security, and to the Trustee on behalf of each such Holder, that, if for any reason, the Company does not pay any sum payable by it to such Holder in respect of this Security as specified in this Security (including any principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on this Security, payments to sinking funds (if applicable), Additional Amounts or any other amounts of whatever nature which may become payable under any of the foregoing or under the Indenture) as and when the
same shall become due under any of the foregoing, the Guarantor will pay to such Holder, or to the Trustee for the account of such Holder, on demand the amount payable by the Company to such Holder. 

(b) Guarantor as Principal Debtor. Without affecting the Company’s obligations, the Guarantor will be liable under this
Guarantee as if it were the sole principal debtor and not merely a surety. Accordingly, it will not be discharged, nor will its liability be affected, by anything which would not discharge it or affect its liability if it were the sole principal
debtor (including (i) any time, indulgence, waiver or consent at any time given to the Company or any other person, (ii) any amendment to any of the Security, the 

  
 16 









 
Indenture or to any security or other guarantee or indemnity, (iii) the making or absence of any demand on the Company or any other person for payment, (iv) the enforcement or absence
of enforcement of any of the Security, the Indenture or of any security or other guarantee or indemnity, (v) the release of any such security, guarantee or indemnity, (vi) the dissolution, amalgamation, reconstruction, merger or
reorganization of the Company or any other Person, (vii) the sale or conveyance of the property of the Company or the Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person or (viii) the illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability of or any defect in any provision of any of the Security or the Indenture or any of the Company’s obligations under any of them). 
 (c) Guarantor’s Obligations Continuing. The Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee are and will remain in full force and effect by way of continuing security until no sum remains
payable under any Security or the Indenture. Furthermore, these obligations of the Guarantor are complementary to, and not instead of, any security or other guarantee or indemnity at any time existing in favor of a Holder, whether from the Guarantor
or otherwise. The Guarantor irrevocably waives all notices and demands whatsoever, as well as diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger of bankruptcy of the Company, protest and any right to
require a proceeding first against the Company. 
 (d) Repayment to the Company. If any payment received by a Holder is,
on the subsequent liquidation or insolvency of the Company, avoided under any laws relating to liquidation or insolvency, such payment will not be considered as having discharged or diminished the liability of the Guarantor and this Guarantee will
continue to apply as if such payment had at all times remained owing by the Company. 
 (e) Indemnity. As a separate and
alternative stipulation, the Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that any sum expressed to be payable by the Company under this Security or the Indenture but which is for any reason (whether or not now known or becoming known to the
Company, the Guarantor or any Holder) not recoverable from the Guarantor on the basis of a guarantee will nevertheless be recoverable from it as if it were the sole principal debtor and will be paid by it to the Holder on demand. This indemnity
constitutes a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations in this Guarantee, gives rise to a separate and independent cause of action and will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder. 

(f) Status of Guarantee. The payment obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee constitute direct, unsecured and
subordinated obligations of the Guarantor. 
 In the event of insolvency (concurso) of the Guarantor under Spanish law
22/2003 of 9 July 2003 (the “Insolvency Law”) or any voluntary or mandatory Guarantor liquidation or similar procedure, claims by Holders of the Guarantee against the Guarantor will fall within the category of subordinated
credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) and will rank in right of payment after Guarantor Senior Indebtedness and will at all times rank pari passu among themselves and pari passu with all other
present and future subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor, except for certain subordinated obligations prescribed by law and subordinated obligations which are expressed to rank
junior to the Guarantee. Accordingly, no amount shall be payable by the Guarantor to the Holders in respect of the Guarantee until the claims with respect to all Guarantor Senior Indebtedness admitted in the insolvency (concurso) of the
Guarantor under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Guarantor liquidation or similar procedure have been satisfied pursuant to the laws of the Kingdom of Spain. 
 After payment in full of all Guarantor Senior Indebtedness but before distributions to shareholders, under article 92 of the Insolvency Law, the Guarantor will pay or satisfy subordinated credits
(créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor in the following order and pro rata within each class: (i) claims related to Guarantor Senior Indebtedness that have been belatedly or inaccurately
communicated to the insolvency administrator or which, by administrative order or decision, are deemed to be included in those claims that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator; (ii) contractually
subordinated payments of principal on subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor (including any payments in respect of principal of the Securities due under the Guarantee) and any
other payments in respect of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor other than payments set forth in subparagraph (iii) of this paragraph; (iii) payments of interest,
including Additional Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on such interest due on subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor (including any payments in respect of interest and
Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities due under the Guarantee) (excluding interest on secured indebtedness to the extent secured); (iv) fines or any other monetary penalties or sanctions; (v) claims of creditors which are related
to the Guarantor as set forth in article 93 of the Insolvency Law; and (vi) indebtedness arising from transactions set aside by the Spanish court overseeing the insolvency proceeding (rescisión concursal) and in respect of which
such court has determined that the relevant creditor has acted in bad faith. 

  
 17 









 The Guarantor agrees and each Holder, by his acceptance hereof agrees, to the above
subordination of this Guarantee. Each such Holder irrevocably waives his rights of priority which would otherwise be accorded to him under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, to the extent necessary to effectuate the subordination provisions of this
Section (f). 
 Prior to any insolvency (concurso) of the Guarantor under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or
mandatory liquidation of the Guarantor or similar procedure, the Guarantor may become the subject of a Restructuring or Resolution and this Security or this Guarantee may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in which case its Holder
(including any beneficial owners) shall not have any claim against the Guarantor in connection with or arising out of any such Regulatory Bail-in Action. 
 (g) Withholding or Deduction. All payments by the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (“Taxes”), unless the withholding or deduction of the Taxes is required by law. In the event any such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied by or on behalf of the
Kingdom of Spain, or any political sub-division thereof or any authority therein or thereof having power to tax, the Guarantor will pay such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by each Holder after such
withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts which would have been received by them in the absence of the withholding or deduction; except that no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to any Security: 

(i) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is liable for such Taxes by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner of the
Security for whose benefit such Holder holds such Security) having some connection with the Kingdom of Spain other than the mere holding of the Security or the mere crediting of the Security to its securities account with the relevant Depository; or

 (ii) in the case of a Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant
Date (as defined below) except to the extent that a Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on such thirtieth day assuming that day to have been a business day in such place of presentment; or

 (iii) in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure by
the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or beneficial owner of that Security, if compliance is required
by statute or by regulation of Spain or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to reduction of or relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge; or 

(iv) where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive implementing
the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26-27, 2000 on the taxation of savings or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive or law; or 

(v) in respect of any Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able
to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Security to another Paying Agent; or 
 (vi) in the event that
the Securities are redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Indenture. 
 Additional Amounts will also not be paid with
respect to any payment to a Holder who is a fiduciary, a partnership, a limited liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of that payment, to the extent that payment would be required by the laws of Spain (or any political
subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for Spanish tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership, an interest holder in that limited liability company or a beneficial owner who
would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had it been the Holder. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, no Additional
Amounts will be paid by the Guarantor or any paying agent on account of any deduction or withholding from a payment on, or in respect of, the Securities where such deduction or withholding is imposed pursuant to 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 Spain 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. 

For the purposes of (ii) above, the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which such
payment first becomes due and payable, but if the full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or prior to such due date, it means the first date on which the full amount of such moneys having been so received and
being available for payment to Holders, notice to that effect shall have been duly given to the Holders in accordance with this Indenture. 

  
 18 









 (h) Power to Execute. The Guarantor hereby warrants, represents and covenants with
the Holder of this Security that it has all corporate power, and has taken all necessary corporate or other steps, to enable it to execute, deliver and perform this Guarantee, and that this Guarantee constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 (i) Subrogation. The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all
rights of the Holder of this Security against the Company in respect of any amounts paid to such Holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or
to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of, any premium and interest on (including Additional Amounts, if any, on) and all other amounts which may be payable under this Security shall have
been paid in full. 
 (j) Governing Law and Submission to Jurisdiction. This Guarantee is governed by, and shall be
construed in accordance with, Spanish law. 
 The Guarantor irrevocably agrees for the benefit of each Holder that the courts of
Madrid, Spain, are to have non-exclusive jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this Guarantee and that accordingly any suit, action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Guarantee
(together referred to as “Proceedings”) may be brought in the courts of Madrid, Spain. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Proceeding may also be brought in any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, New York. The Guarantor hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Guarantee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. 

The Guarantor irrevocably waives any objection which it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any Proceedings in the
courts of Madrid, Spain, and irrevocably agrees that a final judgment in any Proceedings brought in the courts of Madrid, Spain, shall be conclusive and binding upon the Guarantor and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Nothing
contained in this Clause shall limit any right to take Proceedings against the Guarantor in any other court of competent jurisdiction, nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other
jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Guarantee has been manually executed on behalf of the Guarantor.

Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, 

  
 22 









 (a) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that: 

(i) the form or forms and terms of such Securities, if any, have been established in conformity with the provisions of
this Indenture; 
 (ii) all conditions precedent to the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been
complied with and that such Securities, when completed by appropriate insertion and executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to this Indenture and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the
Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding
in equity or at law) and will entitle the Holders thereof to the benefits of this Indenture; such Opinion of Counsel need express no opinion as to the availability of equitable remedies; 

(iii) all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of such Securities, if any, have
been complied with; and 
 (iv) this Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; and 

(b) an Officer’s Certificate stating that, to the best knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, no event which is, or
after notice or lapse of time would become, an Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate at the time of issuance of each Security,
but such opinion and certificate, with appropriate modifications, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series. After any such first delivery, any separate request by the Company that the Trustee
authenticate Securities of such series for original issue will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to authentication and delivery of such Securities continue to have
been complied with. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any
Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee
or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 
 Each Security shall be
dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.02 or 6.13 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its
authorized officers or by the Authenticating Agent. Such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the
Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.10, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and
shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 
 Section 3.04. Execution of Spanish Deed of Issuance and
Form of Regulations. The Trustee, who shall serve as Commissioner of the Syndicate for each series of Securities issued hereunder, shall sign the Spanish deed of issuance (escritura de emisión) related to each such series of
Securities. Each such Spanish deed of issuance (escritura de emisión) shall be filed with the Mercantile Registry of Vizcaya and shall include the Regulations in respect of such Syndicate. The form of Regulations for the Syndicate of
Holders of Securities of each series is set forth in Annex A hereto. 
 Section 3.05. Temporary Securities. Pending
the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 3.03, temporary Securities in lieu thereof which
are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form. Such temporary Securities may
be in global form. 

  
 23 









 Except in the case of temporary Global Securities, which shall be exchanged in accordance
with the provisions thereof, if temporary Securities are issued, the Company shall cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of the same series and containing terms and
provisions that are identical to those of any temporary Securities, such temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such definitive Securities upon surrender of such temporary Securities at an Office or Agency for such Securities, without charge
to any Holder thereof. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute, the Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like
principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations of the same series and containing identical terms and provisions. Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to a temporary Global Security, until so
exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series. 
 Section 3.06. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Company shall cause to be kept a register (each such register being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security
Register”) at an Office or Agency for such series in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Securities of such series and of transfers of the Securities of
such series. Such Office or Agency shall be the “Security Registrar” for that series of Securities. In the event that the Trustee shall not be the Security Registrar, it shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all
reasonable times. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as Security Registrar for each series of Securities. In the event that the Trustee shall cease to be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Securities, it shall have the right to
examine the Security Register for such series at all reasonable times. Unless otherwise provided with respect to a particular series of Securities, there shall be only one Security Register for each series of Securities. 

(b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at any Office or Agency for such series, the Company shall
execute, the Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series denominated as authorized in or pursuant to
this Indenture, of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions. 
 (c) At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series containing identical terms and provisions, in any authorized denominations, and of a like
aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any Office or Agency for such series. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, the Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 

(d) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global
Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for definitive registered securities, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of such Depository or by a nominee of such Depository
to such Depository or by such Depository. Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any Global Security shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities only if (i) the Depository is at any time unwilling, unable or
ineligible to continue as Depository or has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 60 days of the date the Company is so informed in
writing, (ii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that it has elected to cause the issuance of definitive registered Securities, (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with
respect to the Securities, or (iv) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 3.01. If the beneficial owners of interests in a
Global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Securities, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee
definitive Securities in such form and denominations as are required by or pursuant to this Indenture, and of the same series, containing identical terms and in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Security,
executed by the Company and with the Guarantee endorsed thereon by the Guarantor. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such Global Security shall be surrendered from time to time by the U.S. Depository or such
other Depository as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto, and in accordance with instructions given to the Trustee and the U.S. Depository or such other Depository, as the case may be (which instructions shall be in writing
but need not be contained in or accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate or be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose,
to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for definitive Securities as described above without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such surrendered Global Security, a


  
 24 









 
like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such Global Security to be exchanged, as shall be
specified by the beneficial owner thereof; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of the same series to be redeemed and ending on the
relevant Redemption Date. Promptly following any such exchange in part, such Global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to such Depository or the U.S. Depository, as the case may be, or such other Depository or U.S. Depository referred to
above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above. If a Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a Global Security after the close of business at the Office or Agency for such Security where such exchange occurs on
or after (i) any Regular Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the next Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at
such Office or Agency on the related proposed date for payment of interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest shall not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such
Security, but shall be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such Global Security shall be payable in accordance with the provisions
of this Indenture. 
 (e) All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company and the Guarantor evidencing the same debt and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(f) Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the
Company or the Security Registrar for such Security) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit D hereto or in such other form satisfactory to the Company and the Security
Registrar for such Security duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 (g) No service
charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, or redemption of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge and any other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Trustee) that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.05, 9.05 or 11.07 not involving any transfer. 

(h) Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of Securities of like tenor and the same series under Section 11.03 and ending at the close of
business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be
redeemed or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which, in accordance with its terms, has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

 Section 3.07. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. (a) If any mutilated Security is surrendered
to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.07, the Company shall execute, the Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series
containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, appertaining to the surrendered Security. 
 (b) If there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute, the Guarantor
shall endorse the Guarantee on, and, upon the Company’s request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series containing
identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07, in case any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

 (d) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

  
 25 









 (e) Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Security, shall constitute a separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities of such series, if any, duly issued hereunder. 
 (f) The provisions of this
Section, as amended or supplemented pursuant to this Indenture with respect to particular Securities or generally, shall be exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment
of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 Section 3.08. Payment of Interest and Certain Additional Amounts;
Rights to Interest and Certain Additional Amounts Preserved. (a) Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security which shall be payable, and are punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

 The Company shall, before 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on each due date of the principal or (and premium, if any) or interest
or any other amounts due on any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in immediately available funds sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest or any other amounts due or so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust
by the Paying Agent for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest or any other amounts due and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee and the Paying Agent of its action
or failure so to act. Subject to actual receipt of such funds as provided by this Section by the designated Paying Agent, such Paying Agent shall make payments on the Securities in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

(b) Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security
which shall be payable, but shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the
relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (i) or (ii) below: 

(i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Person in whose name such Security (or a
Predecessor Security thereof) shall be registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect
of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled to such
Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than ten days prior to the date of the proposed
payment and not less than ten days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause
notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to the Holder of such Security (or a Predecessor Security thereof) at his address as it appears in the Security
Register not less than ten days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee shall, at the instruction of the Company, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper
of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or a Predecessor Security thereof) shall be registered at the close of business on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (ii). 
 (ii) The Company may make payment
of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Security may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the
Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

  
 26 









 (c) Unless otherwise provided in the form of Securities of any particular series pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture, at the option of the Company, interest on Securities that bear interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by
transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the United States. 
 (d) Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section and Section 3.06, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue,
which were carried by such other Security. 
 Section 3.09. Persons Deemed Owners. (a) Prior to due presentment
of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Security Register as the owner of such Security for the purpose of
receiving payment of principal of, any premium and (subject to Section 3.08) interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to such Security
shall be overdue, and neither the Company nor the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 (b) No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a Depository shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security, and such Depository may
be treated by the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall impair, as between the Depository and such
holders of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the Depository as Holder of any Security. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security Registrar will have any
responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests. 
 Section 3.10. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of
transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities, as well as Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any
such purpose, shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. The Company or the Guarantor may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company or the Guarantor may
have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder that the Company has not issued and sold, and all
Securities so delivered shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by or pursuant to this
Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be cancelled by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practice, unless by a Company Order the Company directs their return to it. 

Section 3.11. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, interest on the
Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 ARTICLE 4 

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE 

Section 4.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. (a) Upon the direction of the Company by a Company Order, this Indenture shall
cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of Securities specified in such Company Order (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange or conversion of Securities of such series herein expressly provided
for and any right to receive Additional Amounts), and the Trustee, on receipt of a Company Order, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series, when

 (i) either 
 (A) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (y) Securities of such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as
provided in Section 3.07 and (z) Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust,
as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  
 27 









 (B) all Securities of such series and, in the case of (1) or
(2) below, not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation 
 (1) have become due and payable, or

 (2) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(3) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 
 and the Company, in the case of (1), (2) or (3) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, money in an amount sufficient to pay and
discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities to the date of such
deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Maturity thereof, as the case may be; 
 (ii) the Company or the Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Outstanding Securities of such series; and 

(iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that
all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with. 
 (b) In addition, upon the taking of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to a series of Securities which results in the cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the principal
amount of, and interest on such Securities or such Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be satisfied and discharged as to such series. 
 (c) In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested
to do so with respect to Securities of such series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Sections 6.06 and 6.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant
to subclause (B) of clause (a)(i) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Sections 3.06, 3.07, 4.03 and the last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive. 

Section 4.02. Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. (a) If, pursuant to Section 3.01, provision is made for either or
both of (i) defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under subsection (b) of this Section 4.02 or (ii) covenant defeasance of the Securities of or within a series under subsection (c) of this Section 4.02,
then such provisions, together with the other provisions of this Section 4.02 (with such modifications thereto as may be specified pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to any Securities), shall be applicable to such Securities, and the
Company or the Guarantor may at its option by Company Order, at any time, with respect to such Securities, and the Guarantees thereof, elect to have Section 4.02(b) (if applicable) or Section 4.02(c) (if applicable) be applied to such
Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Section 4.02. 
 (b) Upon the
Company’s or the Guarantor’s exercise of the above option applicable to this Section 4.02(b) with respect to any Securities of or within a series and the Guarantees thereof, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to such Outstanding Securities and the Guarantor shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the related Guarantees on the date the conditions set forth in subsection (d) of this
Section 4.02 are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding Securities,
and the Guarantor shall be deemed to have satisfied all of its obligations under this Indenture and with respect to the Guarantees relating to such Securities, and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only
for the purposes of subsection (e) of this Section 4.02 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) below, and each of the Company and the Guarantor shall be deemed to have satisfied all of its
other obligations under such Securities, the Guarantees thereof and this Indenture insofar as such Securities and the Guarantees thereof are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company and the Guarantor, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (i) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in
subsection (d) of this Section 4.02 and as more fully set forth in such 

  
 28 









 
Section, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when such payments are due, (ii) the Company’s and the Guarantor’s
obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 3.06, 3.07, 10.02 and 10.03 and with respect to the payment of Additional Amounts, if any, on such Securities as contemplated by Section 10.04, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts,
duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (iv) this Section 4.02. The Company or the Guarantor may exercise its option under this Section 4.02(b) notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under subsection (c) of
this Section 4.02 with respect to such Securities. 
 (c) Upon the Company’s or the Guarantor’s exercise of the
above option applicable to this Section 4.02(c) with respect to any Securities of or within a series, the Company and the Guarantor shall be released from, if specified pursuant to Section 3.01, their obligations under any other covenant,
with respect to such Outstanding Securities and the Guarantees thereof on and after the date the conditions set forth in subsection (d) of this Section 4.02 are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and such
Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such other covenant, but
shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to such Outstanding Securities, the Company and the Guarantor may omit to comply with
and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other covenant
or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default, as the case may be, but, except as
specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities and the Guarantee thereof shall be unaffected thereby. 

(d) The following shall be the conditions to application of subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 4.02 to any Outstanding
Securities of or within a series: 
 (i) The Company or the Guarantor shall irrevocably have deposited or caused
to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 6.08 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.02 applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the
following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A) an amount in Dollars or in such Foreign Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at
Stated Maturity, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations applicable to such Securities (determined on the basis of the Currency in which such Securities are then specified as payable at Stated Maturity) which through the scheduled payment of
principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities, money in an amount, or
(C) a combination thereof, in any case, in an amount, sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal and interest, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of Independent Public Accountants expressed in a written
certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (y) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such
outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and (z) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such Outstanding Securities on the day on which such
payments are due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities. 
 (ii) Such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or the Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound.

 (iii) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default
with respect to such Securities shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the establishment of such trust and, with respect to legal defeasance only, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it
being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 
 (iv)
In the case of an election under subsection (b) of this Section 4.02, the Company or the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel of recognized standing stating that (A) the Company has received from the
Internal Revenue Service a letter ruling, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service a Revenue Ruling, or (B) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law,
in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the beneficial owners of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal
defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such legal defeasance had not occurred. 

  
 29 









 (v) In the case of an election under subsection (c) of this
Section 4.02, the Company or the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel of recognized standing to the effect that the beneficial owners of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S.
federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not
occurred. 
 (vi) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting
interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all relevant Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act). 
 (vii) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, and rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder. 

(viii) The Company or the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel substantially to the effect
that (x) the trust funds deposited pursuant to this Section will not be subject to any rights of holders of Company Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, including those arising under Article 14 and Article 15, and
(y) after the second anniversary following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, except that if a
court were to rule under any such law in any case or proceeding that the trust funds remained property of the Company or the Guarantor, no opinion is given as to the effect of such laws on the trust funds except the following: (A) assuming such
trust funds remained in the possession of the trustee with whom such funds were deposited prior to such court ruling to the extent not paid to Holders of such Securities, such trustee would hold, for the benefit of such Holders, a valid and
perfected security interest in such trust funds that is not avoidable in bankruptcy or otherwise, (B) such Holders would be entitled to receive adequate protection of their interests in such trust funds if such trust funds were used and
(C) no property, rights in property or other interests granted to such trustee for the Trustee or such Holders in exchange for or with respect to any such funds would be subject to any prior rights of holders of Company Senior Indebtedness or
Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, including those arising under Article 14 and Article 15. 
 (ix) The Company or
the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to the defeasance or covenant defeasance under subsection (b) or (c) of this
Section 4.02 (as the case may be) have been complied with. 
 (x) Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Section 4.02(d), such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to
Section 3.01. 
 (e) Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and U.S. Government
Obligations (or other property as may be provided pursuant to Section 3.01) (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 4.02(e), the
“Trustee”) pursuant to subsection (d) of Section 4.02 in respect of any Outstanding Securities of any series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this
Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal (and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Amounts, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (f) Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Security pursuant to Section 3.01, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 4.02(d)(i) has been made, (i) the Holder of a Security in
respect of which such deposit was made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 3.01 or the terms of such Security to receive payment in a Currency other than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 4.02(d)(i) has been
made in respect of such Security, or (ii) a Conversion Event occurs in respect of the Foreign Currency in which the deposit pursuant to Section 4.02(d)(i) has been made, the indebtedness represented by such Security and the Guarantee
thereof shall be deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and satisfied through the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), interest, if any, and Additional Amounts, if any, on such Security as the same becomes due out of the
proceeds yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the case of any such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such Security into the Currency in which such Security becomes payable as a result of such
election or Conversion Event based on the applicable market exchange rate for such Currency in effect on the second Business Day prior to each payment date, except, with respect to a Conversion Event, for such Foreign Currency in effect at the time
of the Conversion Event.

 (g) Anything in this Section 4.02 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall
deliver or pay to the Company or the Guarantor from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations (or other property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in subsection (d) of this Section 4.02
which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect
a defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 4.02. 
 Section 4.03.
Application of Trust Money. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 10.03, all money and U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 or 4.02 shall be held in trust and applied by
it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal,
premium, interest and Additional Amounts for whose payment such money has or U.S. Government Obligations have been deposited with or received by the Trustee; but such money and U.S. Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law. 
 The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge
imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 4.02 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the
Holders of Outstanding Securities. 
 Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay
to the Company from time to time upon Order of the Company any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 3.02 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the defeasance or covenant defeasance, as the case may be, with
respect to such Securities. 
 Section 4.04. Prescription. All claims made against the Company or the Guarantor for
payment of principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on, or in respect of, the Securities shall become void unless made within ten years (in the case of principal) and five years (in the case of interest (including Additional
Amounts)) from the later of (a) the date on which such payment first became due and (b) if the full amount payable has not been received by the applicable Trustee in New York City on or prior to such due date, the date on which the full
amount is so received. 
 Section 4.05. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any
money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 4 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application,
the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor under this Indenture, the Securities and the Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article 4 until such time as the Trustee or such Paying Agent
is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with this Article 4; provided, however, that, if the Company or the Guarantor has made any payment of principal of or interest on any Securities because of the
reinstatement of its obligations, the Company and the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent.

 REMEDIES 
 Section 5.01. Events of Default.
“Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or be effected by
operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), unless such event is specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the supplemental
indenture or Board Resolution creating a particular series of Securities or in the Officer’s Certificate for such series, and except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 5.01:

June 28, 1986, as amended and restated) and will have a rating for long-term senior debt assigned by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Service or Fitch Ratings Ltd. equivalent to or higher than the rating
for long-term senior debt of the Guarantor immediately prior to such reconstruction or merger or amalgamation); or 
 (c) any
other Event of Default that may be specified pursuant to Section 3.01. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this
Section 5.01, any Resolution with respect to the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall not, in and of itself and without regard to any other fact or circumstance, constitute an Event of Default under paragraphs (a) and
(b) above with respect to the Securities of any series. 
 Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and
Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the Trustee, acting pursuant to an Act of the Holders of the Securities of the relevant series, with
respect to all Outstanding Securities of such series, or the Holder of any Outstanding Security of the relevant series, with respect to such Security held by such Holder, may declare the principal, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the
Securities of such series, of such Securities or Security, as the case may be, to be due and payable immediately by giving written notice to the Company, and upon receipt of any such declaration such principal or such lesser amount shall become
immediately due and payable. 
 (b) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities or Security,
as the case may be, of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series, may by Act, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

(i) the Company or the Guarantor has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to pay: 

(A) all overdue installments of any interest on and Additional Amounts with respect to all Securities of such series,

 (B) the principal of and any premium on any Securities of such series which have become due otherwise than by
such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon and any Additional Amounts with respect thereto at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities,

interest and Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and 
 (D) all
sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07; and 

(ii) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of such series, other than the non-payment of the principal of and
any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to Securities of such series which shall have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13. 

(c) No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. (a) The Company and the Guarantor
covenant that if: 
 (i) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any Additional
Amounts with respect to any Security when such interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 21 days, or 

(ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security at its Maturity and such default is
not remedied within 14 days, 

  
 32 









 the Company or the Guarantor shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Holders of such Securities, the whole amount of money then due and payable with respect to such Securities, with interest upon the overdue principal, any premium and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any
overdue installments of interest and Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount of money as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection,
including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.07. 

(b) If the Company or the Guarantor fails to pay the money it is required to pay the Trustee pursuant to the preceding paragraph
forthwith upon the demand of the Trustee, the Trustee, acting upon an Act of the Holders of Securities of such series or in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the money so due
and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon such Securities, and the Guarantee and collect the monies adjudged or decreed to be
payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon such Securities and the Guarantee, wherever situated. 
 (c) If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of
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 Indenture or such
Securities or the Guarantee or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or therein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 Section 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. (a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition
or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company, the Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Company, the Guarantor or such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal
of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company or the Guarantor for the payment of any overdue principal, premium,
interest or Additional Amounts) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of the principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts owing
and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents or counsel and of the Holders of Securities) allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Holder of Securities to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Securities, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07. 
 (b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security in any such proceeding. 

Section 5.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities. All rights of action and claims under this
Indenture or any of the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery or judgment, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, shall be for the
ratable benefit of each and every Holder of a Security in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

 Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee
pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts, upon presentation of
the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

SECOND: To the payment of amounts then due and unpaid to the holders of Company Senior Indebtedness, to the extent required by Article
14;

premium, interest and Additional Amounts, respectively; 
 FOURTH: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled
thereto. 
 Section 5.07. Limitations on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to
institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

(i) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Securities of such series; 
 (ii) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of such series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder with respect to such series of Securities and such Holder or Holders have
offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (iii) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 

(iv) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series; 
 it being understood and intended that no one or more
of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other
series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and any Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts. Except as
set forth in the immediately following paragraph, notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture and in any Security, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal
of, any premium and (subject to Section 3.08) interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities therefor specified in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on
or after the Redemption Date or, in the case of repayment at the option of such Holder if provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, on or after the date such repayment is due) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such
right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder, except that Holders of not less than 75% in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of a series may consent by Act, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities
of such series, to the postponement of the Stated Maturity of any installment of interest for a period not exceeding three years from the original Stated Maturity of such installment (which original Stated Maturity shall have been fixed, for the
avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment). 
 The Guarantor may become the subject of a
Restructuring or Resolution and the Securities of any series or the related Guarantees may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in which case no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Guarantor or the Company in connection
with or arising out of any such Regulatory Bail-in Action. 
 Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If
the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to
such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

  
 34 









 Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to each and every Holder of a Security is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity
or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise
any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to
any Holder of a Security may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by such Holder, as the case may be. 
 Section 5.12. Control by Holders of Securities. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of the relevant series, by Act, shall have the right to direct the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 

(i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or with the Securities of any
series, 
 (ii) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with
such direction, and 
 (iii) such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of
Securities of such series not joining in such action. 
 Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. (a) Subject to
Section 5.02(b)(i)(D), the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series may, by Act, waive any past default hereunder with
respect to such series and its consequences, except a default: 
 (i) in the payment of the principal of or any
premium, or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of such series, or 
 (ii) in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 

(b) Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company and the Guarantor each covenants that (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or
in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company and the
Guarantor each expressly waives (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenant that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and
permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 Section 5.15. Undertaking for Costs.
In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess reasonable costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be
deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.

faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate; 
 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice
of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities of such series and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. In

series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. Upon any such
appointment, such successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series shall thereby become Commissioner of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of such series pursuant to the Regulations of such Syndicate.

any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by instructing such successor Trustee to mail written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of Securities, if

retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties hereunder of the retiring Trustee but, on the request of the Company,
the Guarantor or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges, shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and, subject to

Company, the Guarantor, the retiring Trustee and such successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto 

  
 39 









 
wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, such
successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (ii) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring
with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to
which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of
the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts
hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible for any notice given to, or received by, or any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee
hereunder, and, upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring Trustee shall have no further responsibility for
the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates other
than as hereinafter expressly set forth, and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or
those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company, the Guarantor or such successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges with respect to the Securities of that or those

such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, subject to its claim, if any, provided for in Section 6.07. 

(c) Upon request of any Person appointed hereunder as a successor Trustee, the Company and the Guarantor shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be. 

(d) No Person shall accept its appointment hereunder as a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of a series unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article and agree to thereby become Commissioner of the Syndicate of Holders of Securities of such series. 

Section 6.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. Any Corporation into which the Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate
trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto other than the provision of written notice to the Company and the Guarantor. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. 

Section 6.12. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor).

acceptable to the Company and the Guarantor with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of that or those series issued upon original issue, exchange,
registration of transfer, partial redemption or pursuant to Section 3.07, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee
hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on
behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent.

the effect specified in this Section. 
 (c) Any Corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to the corporate agency, corporate trust or business of
an Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided such Corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

to the Company and the Guarantor and shall mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve, as their names

writing (which writing need not be accompanied by or contained in an Officer’s Certificate by the Company), shall appoint in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent having an office in a Place of Payment designated by the Company
with respect to such series of Securities.

conveyance permitted by Section 8.01 and Section 5.01 above, Additional Amounts under the Securities will thereafter be payable in respect of taxes imposed by the acquiring corporation’s, or the resulting corporation’s,
jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to the obligation to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 or the Guarantee, as the case may be, in respect of taxes imposed by the
laws of the Kingdom of Spain) rather than taxes imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. Additional Amounts with respect to payments of interest or principal due prior to the date of such merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance or lease will be payable only

of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under this Indenture and of waiving future compliance
with respect to the Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, shall 

(i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any premium or installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts
with respect to, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon (except that Holders of not less than 75% in principal amount of Outstanding Securities of a series may consent by Act, on behalf of the Holders of
all of the Outstanding Securities of such series, to the postponement of the Stated Maturity of any installment of interest for a period not exceeding three years from the original Stated Maturity of such installment (which original Stated Maturity
shall have been fixed, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment)) or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof or otherwise, or change the obligation of
the Company or the Guarantor to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 (except as contemplated by Section 3.08 and permitted by Section 8.03 and Section 9.01(a)), or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original
Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 or the amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 5.04, or change the redemption
provisions or change the Place of Payment, Currency in which the principal of, any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
payment on or with respect to any Security on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date or, in the case of repayment at the option of the Holder, on or after the date for repayment), or

 (ii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of
whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in
this Indenture, or reduce the requirements for a quorum or voting, or 

  
 44

Securities of any series the terms and conditions of the obligations of the Company or the Guarantor in respect of the due and punctual payment of the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, thereon or any sinking fund
payments, if any, provided for in respect thereof (including in each case Additional Amounts payable under the Guarantee), 
 except in each
case with respect to any modification or amendment of the Indenture pursuant to a supplemental indenture which is entered into as a result of, and to the extent required by, a Regulatory Bail-in Action (in which case the consent or the affirmative
vote of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected shall not be required). 
 (b) A supplemental indenture which changes
or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which shall have been included expressly and solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such
series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 (c) It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders of Securities under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall
approve the substance thereof. 
 Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. As a condition to executing,
or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trust created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the documents required
by Section 1.02, and (subject to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate, each stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is

 ARTICLE 10 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 10.01. Payment of Principal and Any
Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of each series that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, any premium and interest on and any Additional
Amounts with respect to, the Securities of such series in accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture. 

Section 10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company and the Guarantor shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any
series of Securities an Office or Agency where Securities of such series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or
upon the Company and the Guarantor in respect of the Securities of such series relating thereto, the Guarantees and this Indenture may be served. 
 The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other Offices or Agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from
time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of their obligation to maintain an Office or Agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of
any series for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other Office or Agency. Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this
Indenture, the Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each series the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoints the Office or Agency of the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee for such purpose. Pursuant to
Section 3.01(h), the Company may subsequently appoint a place or places in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York where such Securities may be payable. 
 Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, if and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a Foreign Currency or (ii) may be
payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long as it is required under any other provision of this Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, at least one exchange rate agent. 

Section 10.03. Money for Securities Payments to be Held in Trust. If the Company or the Guarantor shall at any time act as
the Company’s Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it shall, on or before each due date of the principal of, any premium or interest on or Additional Amounts with respect to, any of the Securities of such series, segregate and
hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant
to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and
shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying
Agents for any series of Securities, it shall, on or prior to each due date of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Securities of such series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum (in the
currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 The Company shall cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree
with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent shall: 
 (i) hold all sums
held by it for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or
otherwise disposed of as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture; 
 (ii) give the Trustee notice of any
default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the making of any payment of principal, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such series; and 

(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to
the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 

  
 46 









 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which
such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 

Except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the
Company or the Guarantor, in trust for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after such payment of principal
or any such premium or interest or any such Additional Amounts has been made shall be repaid to the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company or the Guarantor) shall be discharged from such
trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company or the Guarantor for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all
liability of the Company or the Guarantor as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published
once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a
date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. 

Section 10.04. Additional Amounts. The provisions of this Section 10.04 shall be applicable to the Securities of each
series except as specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the relevant supplemental indenture or Board Resolution creating such series of Securities or in the Officer’s Certificate for such series of Securities. The Company hereby
further agrees that any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each Security shall be paid without deduction or withholding for or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever nature unless such withholding or
deduction is required by law. In the event any such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain (the “Taxing Jurisdiction”) or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein
having the power to tax, the Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts in respect of principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and sinking fund payments, if any, as may be necessary in order that the net amount paid to the Holder of
such Security or to the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case may be, under this Indenture, after such deduction or withholding, shall equal the respective amounts of principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and sinking fund payments, if
any, as specified in the Security to which such Holder or the Trustee would be entitled if no such deduction or withholding had been made; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 

(a) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is liable for such Taxes by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner of the
Security for whose benefit such Holder holds such Security) having some connection with the Kingdom of Spain other than the mere holding of the Security (or such beneficial interest) or the mere crediting of the Security to its securities account
with the relevant Depository; 
 (b) in the case of a Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than
30 days after the Relevant Date (as defined below) except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on such thirtieth day assuming that day to have been a business day in such
place of presentment; 
 (c) in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but
for the failure by the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or beneficial owner of that Security, if
compliance is required by statute or by regulation of Spain or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to reduction of or relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

 (d) where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive
implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26-27, 2000 on the taxation of savings or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive or law; 

(e) in respect of any Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be able to
avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Security to another Paying Agent; or 
 (f) in the event that the
Securities are redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Indenture. 

  
 47 









 Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any Security to any
Holder who is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof)
to be included in the income, for Spanish tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to
such Additional Amounts had it been a Holder of such Security. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, no Additional Amounts will be paid
by the Company or any paying agent on account of any deduction or withholding from a payment on, or in respect of, the Securities where such deduction or withholding is imposed pursuant to 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 Spain 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. 
 For the purposes of (b) above, the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which any payment first becomes due and payable, but if the full amount of the moneys
payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or prior to such due date, it means the first date on which the full amount of such moneys having been so received and being available for payment to Holders, notice to that effect shall have been
duly given to the Holders in accordance with this Indenture. 
 Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context,
the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby
or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof
shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made. 

Section 10.05. Statement by Officers as to Default. For so long as any Securities of any series are Outstanding, each of the
Company and the Guarantor will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of their respective fiscal years ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate, complying with Section 314(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, from the
principal executive, financial or accounting officer of each of the Company and the Guarantor, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signer or signers thereof the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, is in default in the
performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder). 

Section 10.06. Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 8, each of the Company and the Guarantor shall do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not obligate the Company or the Guarantor to preserve any such right or franchise if the Company or the
Guarantor shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to any Holder. 

Section 10.07. Waiver of Certain Covenants. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for Securities
of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b) or
Section 9.01(c) for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series or any term, provision or condition set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or
affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall
remain in full force and effect. 
 ARTICLE 11 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Securities of any series at the option of the Company as permitted or
required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article. 

  
 48 









 Section 11.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the
Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of (a) less than all of the Securities of any series or (b) all of the Securities of any
series, with the same interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms, the Company shall, at least 30 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such
Redemption Date and of the principal amount (or in the case of Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any
restrictions on redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 

Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. If less than all of the Securities of any series with the
same interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series not
previously called for redemption, by lot and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of Securities of such series;
provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of a Security of such series not redeemed to less
than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein or pursuant hereto. 
 The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall
relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 
 Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in Section 1.06, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date,
unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the manner herein provided to the Holder of any Securities designated for redemption as a whole
or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or portion thereof. 
 Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Securities in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder receives the notice. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (i) the Redemption Date, 
 (ii) the Redemption Price, 

(iii) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of
partial redemption, the principal amount (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount)) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed, 

(iv) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on
and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed, 

(v) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon each such Security or portion
thereof to be redeemed, and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(vi) the place or places where such Securities maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of
the Redemption Price and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts pertaining thereto, 
 (vii) that the
redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case, and 
 (viii) the CUSIP number or the Euroclear and Cedel
reference number of such Securities, if any (or any other numbers used by a Depository to identify such Securities). 

  
 49 









 Except as otherwise provided herein, notice of redemption published as contemplated by
Section 1.06 need not identify particular Securities to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed
at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent,
segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on and Additional Amounts with
respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 
 Section 11.06.
Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such
date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, maturing after the
Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with any accrued interest and Additional Amounts to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Securities whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates therefor according to their terms and
the provisions of Section 3.08. 
 If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for
redemption, the principal and any premium, until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 Section 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any Office or Agency for such Security (with, if the Company or the
Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute, the
Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and provisions, of any
authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Global Security is so surrendered, the Company shall execute,
the Guarantor shall endorse the Guarantee on, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the U.S. Depository or other Depository for such Global Security as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, without
service charge, a new Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered. 
 Section 11.08. Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons. (a) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, all (but not less than all) of the Securities of any series may
be redeemed in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 at the option of the Company, subject to the prior approval of the Bank of Spain (which under current Spanish bank regulations may not be sought prior to the fifth anniversary of the
issuance of the series of Securities) if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which Spain is a party) or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or
therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective on or after the date of the applicable Prospectus
Supplement relating to such series, either (a) it is determined by the Company or the Guarantor that in making any payment under the Securities or the Guarantee, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, would become obligated to pay
Additional Amounts with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or other governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain and which obligation
cannot be avoided by the Company or the Guarantor taking measures available to it without unreasonable cost or expense, or (b) the Guarantor is or would be required to deduct or withhold tax on any payment to the Company to enable the Company
to make any payment of principal, premium or interest in respect of the Securities and the Guarantor cannot avoid this obligation without unreasonable cost or expense (excluding the assumption of the Company’s obligations under the Securities
by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Guarantor); provided that no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, would
be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee then due. 

  
 50 









 Prior to any notice of redemption of such Securities pursuant to Section 11.04, the
Company or the Guarantor shall provide the Trustee with (i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Guarantor stating that the Company or the Guarantor is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of
circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company or the Guarantor to redeem such Securities pursuant to this Section have been satisfied; (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company or the Guarantor,
as the case may be, has or will become obliged to make such withholding or deduction or to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or amendment; and (iii) a copy of the Bank of Spain’s consent to such redemption. 

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, if the Securities of a series are not listed on an organized market in an
OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to the applicable first Interest Payment Date on the Securities of such series, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice
(ending on a day which is no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders of Securities of such series of Securities in accordance with Section 11.04 (which notice will be irrevocable),
redeem all of the outstanding Securities of such series at the Redemption Price; provided that from and including the issue date of such Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or
maintain such listing, as applicable. 
 ARTICLE 12 

SINKING FUNDS 
 Section 12.01. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a series, except as otherwise permitted or
required by any form of Security of such series issued pursuant to this Indenture. Any sinking fund issuances must be made in accordance with the regulations of the Bank of Spain as in effect from time to time. 

The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of Securities of any series is herein referred to as a
“mandatory sinking fund payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of Securities of such series is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”. If provided for by the terms
of Securities of any series, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 12.02. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as provided for by the
terms of Securities of such series. 
 Section 12.02. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The
Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to the Securities of any series to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities (a) deliver to the Trustee for cancellation Outstanding Securities of
such series (other than any of such Securities previously called for redemption or any of such Securities in respect of which cash shall have been released to the Company) and (b) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been
redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such series of Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, provided that such series of
Securities have not been previously so credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the face amount specified in such Securities for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of
such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. If as a result of the delivery or credit of Securities of any series in lieu of cash payments pursuant to this Section 12.02, the principal amount of Securities of such series to be
redeemed in order to exhaust the aforesaid cash payment shall be less than $100,000, the Trustee need not call Securities of such series for redemption, except upon Company Request, and such cash payment shall be held by the Trustee or a Paying
Agent and applied to the next succeeding sinking fund payment, provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall at the request of the Company from time to time pay over and deliver to the Company any cash payment so being
held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of Securities of that series purchased by the Company having an unpaid principal amount equal to the cash payment requested to be released to the Company.

 Section 12.03. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 60 days prior to each sinking fund
payment date for any series of Securities, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series pursuant to the terms of that series, the
portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting of Securities of that series pursuant to Section 12.02, and the optional amount, if any,
to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so credited and not theretofore delivered. If such Officer’s Certificate shall specify an optional amount to be
added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, the Company shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount therein specified. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment date the Trustee shall


  
 51 









 
select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 11.03 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at
the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 11.04. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 11.06 and 11.07. 

ARTICLE 13 

SECURITIES IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES 

Section 13.01. Applicability of Article. Whenever this Indenture provides for (a) any action by, or the determination of
any of the rights of, Holders of Securities of any series in which not all of such Securities are denominated in the same Currency, or (b) any distribution to Holders of Securities, in the absence of any provision to the contrary in the form of
Security of any particular series, any amount in respect of any Security denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be treated for any such action or distribution as that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount on such
reasonable basis of exchange and as of the record date with respect to Securities of such series (if any) for such action, determination of rights or distribution (or, if there shall be no applicable record date, such other date reasonably proximate
to the date of such action, determination of rights or distribution) as the Company may specify in a written notice to the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE 14 
 SUBORDINATION OF
SECURITIES 
 Section 14.01. Agreement to Subordinate. The Company, for itself, its successors and
assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities by his acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness represented by the Securities and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if
any, on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Company Senior Indebtedness. 

Section 14.02. Subordination of Securities. (a) The obligations of the Company under the Securities, whether on account
of principal, interest or otherwise, constitute direct, unconditional and subordinated obligations of the Company. If and to the extent that there is a deficiency in any payment in respect of the Securities and such deficiency is not remedied as a
result of a demand for payment under the Guarantee (but without prejudice to the subordinated status of the Guarantee pursuant to Article 15) the claims of the Holders in respect of such deficiency will, in the event of insolvency (concurso)
of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure, fall within the category of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) and will rank
in right of payment after Company Senior Indebtedness and will at all times rank pari passu among themselves and pari passu with all other present and future subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the
Insolvency Law) of the Company, except for certain subordinated obligations prescribed by law and subordinated obligations which are expressed to rank junior to the Securities. Accordingly, no amount shall be payable by the Company to the Holders in
respect of such deficiency until the claims with respect to all Company Senior Indebtedness (other than as aforesaid) admitted in the insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Company
liquidation or similar procedure have been satisfied pursuant to the laws of the Kingdom of Spain and any amounts in respect of such deficiency thereafter paid to the Trustee will be pari passu with the amounts payable with respect to
subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company in the insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar
procedure and shall be held by the Trustee in trust to apply the same: 
 (i) first, in payment or satisfaction
of the costs, charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee in or about the execution of the trusts of these presents and any unpaid remuneration of the Trustee; 

(ii) second, in payment or satisfaction of claims related to Company Senior Indebtedness that have been belatedly or
inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator or which, by administrative order or decision, are deemed to be included in those claims that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator; 

(iii) third, in payment or satisfaction of contractually subordinated payments of principal on subordinated credits
(créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company (including any payments in respect of principal of the Securities) and any other payments in respect of subordinated credits (créditos
subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company other than payments set forth in subparagraph (iv) below; 
 (iv) fourth, in payment or satisfaction of payments of interest, including Additional Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on such interest due on subordinated credits (créditos
subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company (including any payments in respect of interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities) (excluding interest on secured indebtedness to the extent secured); 

  
 52 









 (v) fifth, in payment or satisfaction of fines or any other monetary
penalties or sanctions; 
 (vi) sixth, in payment or satisfaction of claims of creditors which are related to the
Company as set forth in article 93 of the Insolvency Law; 
 (vii) seventh, in payment or satisfaction of
indebtedness arising from transactions set aside by the Spanish court overseeing the insolvency proceeding (rescisión concursal) and in respect of which such court has determined that the relevant creditor has acted in bad faith; and

 (viii) eighth, in payment of claims arising from contracts with reciprocal obligations as referred to in
articles 61, 62, 68 and 69 of the Insolvency Law, wherever the court rules, prior to the administrators’ report of insolvency (administración concursal) that the creditor repeatedly impedes the fulfillment of the contract against
the interest of the insolvency. 
 Prior to any insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any
voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure, the Guarantor may become the subject of a Restructuring or Resolution and the Securities of any series or the related Guarantees may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in
which case no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Guarantor or the Company in connection with or arising out of any such Regulatory Bail-in Action. 
 (b) The trust mentioned in paragraph (a) of this Section 14.02, may be performed by the Trustee paying over to any insolvency trustee or liquidator for the time being of the Company the amounts
received by the Trustee as aforesaid (less any amounts thereof set forth in subparagraph (i) of paragraph (a) of this Section 14.02) on terms that such insolvency trustee or liquidator shall distribute the same in accordance with
paragraph (a) of this Section 14.02 and the receipt of such insolvency trustee or liquidator shall be satisfactory to the Trustee for the performance by it of the trust mentioned in paragraph (a) of this Section 14.02.

 (c) The provisions of this Section 14.02 apply only to any deficiency referred to in paragraph (a) of this
Section 14.02, and nothing in this Section 14.02 shall affect or prejudice the payment of the costs, charges, expenses or liabilities or remuneration of the Trustee or any other amounts payable by the Company under paragraph (a) of
this Section 14.02 or the rights and remedies of the Trustee in respect thereof. 
 (d) Upon any payment or distribution of
assets of the Company referred to in this Article 14, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, shall be entitled to rely upon a certificate of the insolvency trustee or liquidator or other person making any distribution to the
Trustee for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, including the creditors referred to in paragraph (a) above, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed
thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 14. The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the creditors referred to in paragraph (a). The Trustee shall not be liable to any such creditor if it shall
pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders of Securities or the Company moneys or assets to which creditors referred to in paragraph (a) shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 14. 

(e) The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, or the conveyance, transfer or lease by the Company of its
properties and assets substantially as an entirety to, another Person upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article 8, or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following any such conveyance or transfer, shall not be deemed an event of
insolvency (concurso) (under the Insolvency Law) or voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure for the purposes of paragraph (a) of this Section 14.02 if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the
Company is merged or the Person that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease of such properties and assets substantially as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, comply with
the conditions set forth in Article 8. 
 Section 14.03. Payments on Securities Permitted. Except as set forth in
the immediately following paragraph, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall (a) affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, at any time except as provided in
Section 14.02, payments of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities or (b) prevent the application by the Trustee of any moneys deposited with
it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Securities, unless the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office written notice of any event prohibiting the making of
such payment more than three Business Days prior to the date fixed for such payment. 

  
 53 









 The Guarantor may become the subject of a Restructuring or Resolution and the Securities of
any series or the related Guarantees may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in which case the foregoing written notice obligation shall not apply. 
 Section 14.04. Authorization of Holders to Trustee to Effect Subordination. Each Holder of Securities by his acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination of the Securities as provided in this Article 14 and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

Section 14.05. Modifications of Terms of Company Senior Indebtedness. Any renewal or extension of the time of payment of any
Company Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Company Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating or evidencing Company Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the waiver of default
thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee. 
 No
compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of, or waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any
indenture or other instrument under which any Company Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such Company Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such release is in accordance with the provisions of any applicable document, shall in any way alter or
affect any of the provisions of this Article 14 or of the Securities relating to the subordination thereof. 

Section 14.06. Trustee Claims under Indenture Not Subordinated. Nothing in this Article 14 shall apply to claims of, or
payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.07. 
 Section 14.07. Reliance on Judicial Order or
Certificate of Liquidating Agent. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 14, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of
competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian,
receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such payment
or distribution, the holders of Company Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 14.

 Section 14.08. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Company Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee shall not be deemed
to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Company Senior Indebtedness and shall not be liable to any such holders or creditors if it shall in good faith pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or to any other Person cash,
property or securities to which any holders of Company Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 14 or otherwise. With respect to the holders of Company Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only
such of its covenants or obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article 14 and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to holders of Company Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 

Section 14.09. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have
been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 14 shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its
meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article 14 in addition to or in place of the Trustee. 
 ARTICLE 15 
 GUARANTEES 

Section 15.01. Guarantee. The Guarantor by its execution of this Indenture hereby agrees with each Holder of a Security of
each series authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and with the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, to enter into a guarantee in respect of each such series of Securities in substantially the form set forth in Section 2.05. 

Section 15.02. Execution and Delivery of Guarantees. To evidence its guarantees substantially in the form set forth in
Section 2.05, the Guarantor hereby agrees to execute the Guarantees manually, or by facsimile in the form established pursuant hereto, to be endorsed on each Security issued by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. Each
such Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor by an Executive Officer or any other officer of the Guarantor so authorized by a Board Resolution. Guarantees so executed on Securities authenticated and delivered by the Trustee shall be
valid and binding obligations of the Guarantor under Spanish law enforceable in accordance with their terms. 

  
 54 









 Guarantees bearing the manual or facsimile signature of any individual who was at any time
an Executive Officer or another officer authorized by a Board Resolution to execute such Guarantee shall bind the Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individual shall have ceased to be an Executive Officer or such other authorized officer prior to
the authentication and delivery of the Securities upon which such Guarantees are endorsed or was not an Executive Officer or such other authorized officer at the date of authentication of such Securities. 

The Delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee
endorsed thereon on behalf of the Guarantor. 
 Section 15.03. Subordination of the Guarantee. The obligations of
the Guarantor under the Guarantees constitute direct, unsecured and subordinated obligations of the Guarantor. In the event of insolvency (concurso) of the Guarantor under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Guarantor liquidation
or similar procedure, claims by Holders of Guarantees against the Guarantor will fall within the category of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) and will rank in right of payment after
Guarantor Senior Indebtedness and will at all times rank pari passu among themselves and pari passu with all other present and future subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the
Guarantor, except for certain subordinated obligations prescribed by law and subordinated obligations which are expressed to rank junior to the Guarantee. Accordingly, no amount shall be payable by the Guarantor to the Holders in respect of the
Guarantee until the claims with respect to all Guarantor Senior Indebtedness admitted in the insolvency (concurso) of the Guarantor under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Guarantor liquidation or similar procedure have been
satisfied pursuant to the laws of the Kingdom of Spain. 
 After payment in full of all Guarantor Senior Indebtedness but before
distributions to shareholders, under article 92 of the Insolvency Law, the Guarantor will pay or satisfy subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor in the following order and pro
rata within each class: (i) claims related to Guarantor Senior Indebtedness that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator or which, by administrative order or decision, are deemed to be included in
those claims that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator; (ii) contractually subordinated payments of principal on subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the
Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor (including any payments in respect of principal of the Securities due under the Guarantees) and any other payments in respect of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the
Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor other than payments set forth in subparagraph (iii) of this paragraph; (iii) payments of interest, including Additional Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on such interest due on subordinated credits
(créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Guarantor (including any payments in respect of interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities due under the Guarantees) (excluding interest on secured
indebtedness to the extent secured); (iv) fines or any other monetary penalties or sanctions; (v) claims of creditors which are related to the Guarantor as set forth in article 93 of the Insolvency Law; and (vi) indebtedness arising
from transactions set aside by the Spanish court overseeing the insolvency proceeding (rescisión concursal) and in respect of which such court has determined that the relevant creditor has acted in bad faith. 

Prior to any insolvency (concurso) of the Guarantor under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory liquidation of the
Guarantor or similar procedure, the Guarantor may become the subject of a Restructuring or Resolution and the Securities of any series or the related Guarantees may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in which case no Holder of any Security
shall have any claim against the Guarantor in connection with or arising out of any such Regulatory Bail-in Action. 

Section 15.04. Payments on Guarantees Permitted. Nothing contained in this Indenture or the Guarantees shall affect the
obligation of the Guarantor to make, or prevent the Guarantor from making, at any time except as provided in Section 15.03, payments of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Securities pursuant to the Guarantees.

 Section 15.05. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Holder by his acceptance of a Security shall have
authorized and directed the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination of the Guarantee provided in this Article 15 and appointed the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such
purposes. 
 Section 15.06. Modifications of Terms of Guarantor Senior Indebtedness. Any renewal or extension of the
time of payment of any Guarantor Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Guarantor Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating or evidencing Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the
waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee. 

  
 55 









 No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of,
or waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any indenture or other instrument under which any Guarantor Senior Indebtedness is outstanding
or of such Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such release is in accordance with the provisions of any applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of this Article 15 or of the Securities relating to the
subordination thereof. 
 Section 15.07. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. In case at any time any Paying Agent
other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Guarantor and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 15 shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and
including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee. 

ARTICLE 16 

REGULATORY BAIL-IN ACTIONS 

Section 16.01. Agreement with Respect to the Taking of Regulatory Bail-In Actions. (a) By purchasing the Securities of
any series, each Holder and beneficial owner of such Securities acknowledges, agrees to be bound by and consents to the execution of any Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to such Securities and/or the related Guarantees. The rights of the
Holders and beneficial owners under the Securities of any series and the related Guarantees are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the provisions of any such Regulatory Bail-in Action. 

(b) By its purchase of the Securities of any series each Holder and beneficial owner thereof:

 (ii) to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims against the Trustee for,

Bail-in Action with respect to such Securities and/or Guarantees; and 
 (iii) acknowledges and agrees that, upon
the execution of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities of any series and/or the related Guarantees, (a) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from holders of the Securities of such series under
Section 5.12, and (b) this Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect to the execution of any Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to such Securities or Guarantees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
following the completion of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series remain outstanding, then the Trustee’s duties under the Indenture shall remain applicable with respect to the
Securities of such series following such completion to the extent that the Company and the Trustee shall agree pursuant to a supplemental indenture or an amendment to this Indenture. 

(c) Each Holder or beneficial owner that acquires Securities in the secondary market or otherwise 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 this Article 16. 
 (d) By its purchase of the Securities of any series, each Holder and beneficial owner shall be
deemed to have (i) consented to the execution of any Regulatory Bail-in Action as it may be imposed without any prior notice by the relevant Spanish or European authority of its decision to exercise such power with respect to such Securities or
the related Guarantees and (ii) authorized, directed and requested The Depository Trust Company (“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 execution of any Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities or Guarantees as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder or beneficial owner.

 (e) Upon the execution of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities of any series or the related Guarantees,
the Company shall provide a written notice to DTC as soon as practicable regarding such execution of a Regulatory Bail-in Action for purposes of notifying Holders of the Securities of such series of such occurrence. The Company shall also deliver a

 EXHIBIT B 
 [FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY AND GLOBAL SECURITY] 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE
SECURITIES 
 1. General. (a) This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of a series of debt securities of the
Company, designated as its     % Subordinated Guaranteed Securities Due                     , (the
“Securities”), limited to the aggregate principal amount of (except as otherwise provided below) and issued or to be issued pursuant to an Indenture (as supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”) dated as of
            , 20     among the Company, Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (together with its successors and permitted assigns under the Indenture, the
“Guarantor”) and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (together with any successor Trustee under the Indenture, the “Trustee”). The terms and conditions of the Indenture shall have effect as if incorporated
herein. The holders of the Securities (each a “Holder”) will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture for a statement
of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the holders of the Company Senior Indebtedness and the Guarantor Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms
upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City. 

(b) The Securities are direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Company. The Securities are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the guarantee (the “Guarantee”) dated                      (a
counterpart of which is endorsed hereon) as to the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest, payments to sinking funds (if applicable), Additional Amounts and any other amounts of whatever nature which may become payable under any of the
foregoing or under the Indenture. 
 (c) The Securities will initially be sold in the form of one or more global
certificates representing the notes in fully registered form without interest coupons (each a “Global Security” and, together with any securities issued in definitive form pursuant to the Indenture (each a
“Security”), the “Securities”) deposited with The Bank of New York Mellon as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). The Securities will not be issued in bearer form. The Securities, and
transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 3.06 of the Indenture. Any person in whose name a Security shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be treated at all times, and for all purposes,
by the Company, Guarantor and the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Security, regardless of any notice of ownership, theft or loss or of any writing thereon. 
 2. Payments and Paying Agencies. (a) All payments on the Securities shall be made in such coin or currency of
                     as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 

(b) (i) Principal of this Security and interest due at maturity will be payable against surrender of such Security at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City in immediately available funds by [denomination] check drawn on, or by transfer to a [denomination] account maintained by the registered Holder with, a bank located in the United States.

 (ii) Payment of interest (including Additional Amounts) on this Security will be made to the persons in whose
name such Security is registered at the end of the close of business on the Regular Record Date, which shall be the end of the          day next preceding the date on which interest is to be paid whether or
not such day is a Business Day (as defined below), notwithstanding the cancellation of such Security upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such interest payment date. 

Any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities which shall be payable, but shall not be punctually paid or
duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such Securities (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such
Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (A) or (B) below: 
 (A) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Person in whose name such Security shall be registered at the close of business on a “Special Record Date” for
the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on such Security and the date of the proposed payment, and
at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall 

  
 66 









 
make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person
entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than ten days prior to the date of
the proposed payment and not less than ten days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to the Holders (or holders of a predecessor security of their Securities) at their addresses as
they appear in the Security Register not less than ten days prior to such Special Record Date. The Trustee shall, at the instruction of the Company, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause a similar notice to be published at least once
in an Authorized Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or Predecessor Security thereof) shall be registered at the close of business
on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (B). 
 (B) The
Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Security may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after
notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 (c) Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of 12 30-day months. 

3. Additional Amounts, Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons  

(a) Any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each Security shall be paid without deduction or withholding for
or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever nature (“Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event any withholding or deduction is imposed or levied by or on behalf of
the Kingdom of Spain (the “Taxing Jurisdiction”) or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, the Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts in respect of principal, premium, if
any, interest, if any, and sinking fund payments, if any, as may be necessary in order that the net amount paid to the Holder of such Security or to the Trustee or any Paying Agent, as the case may be, under the Indenture, after such deduction or
withholding, shall equal the respective amounts of principal, premium, if any, interest, if any, and sinking fund payments, if any, as specified in the Security to which such Holder or the Trustee would be entitled if no such deduction or
withholding had been made; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 
 (i) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is liable for such Taxes by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner of the Security for whose benefit such Holder holds such Security) having
some connection with the Kingdom of Spain other than the mere holding of the Security (or such beneficial interest) or the mere crediting of the Security to its securities account with the relevant Depository; 

(ii) in the case of a Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant
Date (as defined below) except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on such thirtieth day assuming that day to have been a business day in such place of presentment;

 (iii) in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
the failure by the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or beneficial owner of that Security, if
compliance is required by statute or by regulation of Spain or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to reduction of or relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

 (iv) where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any
other Directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26-27, 2000 on the taxation of savings or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive or law; 

  
 67 









 (v) in respect of any Security presented for payment (where presentation is
required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Security to another Paying Agent; or 
 (vi) in the event that the Security is redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Indenture. 
 Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner
of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for Spanish tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such
fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been a Holder of such Security. 

For the avoidance of doubt, no Additional Amounts will be paid by the Company or any paying agent on account of any deduction or
withholding from a payment on, or in respect of, the Securities where such deduction or withholding is imposed pursuant to 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 Spain 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. 
 For the purposes of
(ii) above, the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which any payment first becomes due and payable, but if the full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or prior
to such due date, it means the first date on which the full amount of such moneys having been so received and being available for payment to Holders, notice to that effect shall have been duly given to the Holders in accordance with the Indenture.

 (b) All (but not less than all) of the Securities may be redeemed in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Indenture
at the option of the Company, subject to the prior approval of the Bank of Spain, if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which Spain is a party) or any
political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective on or
after the issue date of the Securities, either (i) it is determined by the Company or the Guarantor that in making any payment under the Securities or the Guarantee, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, would become obligated to
pay Additional Amounts with respect thereto as a result of any Taxes imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain and which obligation cannot be avoided by the Company or the
Guarantor taking measures available to it without unreasonable cost or expense, or (ii) the Guarantor is or would be required to deduct or withhold tax on any payment to the Company to enable the Company to make any payment of principal,
premium or interest in respect of the Securities and the Guarantor cannot avoid this obligation without unreasonable cost or expense (excluding the assumption of the Company’s obligations under the Securities by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of
the Guarantor); provided that no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or
pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Securities or the Guarantee then due. 
 Prior to any notice of
redemption of the Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company or the Guarantor shall provide the Trustee with (i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Guarantor stating that the Company or the Guarantor is entitled to effect such
redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company or the Guarantor to redeem such Securities pursuant to this paragraph have been satisfied; (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, has or will become obliged to make such withholding or deduction or to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of such change or amendment; and (iii) a copy
of the Bank of Spain’s consent to such redemption. 
 (c) If the Securities are not listed on an organized market in an
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development country no later than the date that is 45 days before the initial Interest Payment Date on such Securities, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, may, at its election and having
given no less than 15 days’ notice to the Holders, redeem all of the outstanding Securities at their principal amount, together with accrued interest, if any, thereon to but not including the redemption date; provided that from and including
the issue date of such Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain such listing, as applicable. In the event of an early redemption of the Securities for the reasons set
forth in the preceding sentence, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will be required to withhold tax and will pay interest in respect of the principal amount of the Securities redeemed net of the Spanish withholding tax applicable to
such payments. 

  
 68 









 4. Certain Covenants of the Company and the Guarantor. The Indenture contains certain
covenants of the Company and the Guarantor, including covenants as to the payment of principal of and interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Securities, the maintenance of offices for payments and the appointment to fill a vacancy in the
office of Trustee. 
 5. Events of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute an “Event of
Default” under this Security (whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary 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) except as set forth in the last paragraph of this paragraph 5: 
 (a) an
order of any competent court or administrative agency is made or any resolution is passed by the Company for the winding-up or dissolution of the Company (other than for the purpose of an amalgamation, merger or reconstruction approved by Act (as

 (b) an order is made by any competent court commencing

 Notwithstanding any other

Security affected shall not be required). 
 7. Syndicate of Holders, Meetings. (a) The Holders of Securities shall

its relationship to the Company and are attached to the Spanish deed of issuance (escritura de emisión) with respect to the Securities. By purchasing a Security, the Holder of that Security is deemed to agree to membership in the
Syndicate in respect of the Securities and, if such Holder purchased the Security prior to the record date for the first meeting of the Syndicate, to have granted full power and authority to the Trustee with respect to the Securities to act as its
proxy to vote at the first meeting of the Syndicate of Holders of the Securities in favor of ratifying the Regulations in respect of the Syndicate, the designation and appointment of the Trustee as Commissioner (as defined below) of the Syndicate

pursuant to the Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of Securities shall be given or taken only by resolution duly adopted in accordance with the Indenture and the Regulations governing the Syndicate of Holders of Securities at a meeting of
such Syndicate duly called and held in accordance with the Regulations, which resolution as so adopted is referred to as the “Act” of the Holders.

and the obligations of the Trustee will control and prevail.

8. Replacement; Exchange and Transfer of Securities. (a) In case any Security shall become mutilated, defaced or be
apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, upon the request of the registered Holder thereof and subject to Section 3.07 of the Indenture, the Company

shall execute, the Guarantor shall endorse a Guarantee on and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Security containing identical terms and of like principal and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the apparently destroyed, lost or stolen Security. In every case, the applicant for a substitute Security shall
furnish to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by each of them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee harmless and, in every
case of destruction, loss or theft evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Security and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute Security, the Holder of such Security, if so requested by
the Company, will pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the
substitute Security. 
 (b) The Securities are issuable only in registered form and without coupons. Upon the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 8(e) hereof, a Security or Securities may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Securities in different authorized denominations by surrender
of such Security or Securities at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or at the office of a transfer agent, together with a written request for the exchange. 

(c) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 8(e) hereof, a
Security may be transferred in whole or in a smaller authorized denomination by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Security for transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or at the office of a transfer agent
accompanied by an executed instrument of assignment and transfer. The registration of transfer of the Securities will be made by the Trustee in New York City. 
 (d) The costs and expenses of effecting any exchange, transfer or registration of transfer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, except, if the Company shall so require, the payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge or other expenses that may be imposed in relation thereto, will be borne by the Company. 
 (e) The Company may decline (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for
redemption of Securities of like tenor and the same series under Section 11.03 of the Indenture and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for
redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which, in accordance with its terms, has been
surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

Outstanding the Company will maintain offices or agencies for the payment of principal of and interest (including Additional Amounts) on this Security as herein provided in New York City. Notice of any such termination or appointment and of any
change in the office through which any Paying Agent, transfer agent or Security Registrar will act will be promptly given in the manner described in paragraph 12 hereof. 
 11. Enforcement. Except as provided in Section 5.07 of the Indenture, no Holder of any Security shall have any right by virtue of or by availing itself of any provision of the Indenture or of
these terms to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to the Indenture or of the Securities or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless (a) such
Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities, (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred in compliance with such request, (c) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding, and (d) no direction inconsistent with such written request
has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities. 
 12. Notices. Where the Indenture or the Regulations provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders if in writing and mailed, first-class postage
prepaid, to each Holder of a Security affected by such event, at his 

  
 71 









 
address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In addition to the foregoing,
notice of any meeting of Holders of Securities shall be given in accordance with Section 1.04(c) of the Indenture and the Regulations of the Syndicate. 
 In addition, the Company shall cause any publications of such notices as may be required from time to time by applicable Spanish law. 

13. Prescription. All claims made against the Company or the Guarantor for payment of principal of, or interest (including
Additional Amounts) on, or in respect of, the Securities shall become void unless made within ten years (in the case of principal) and five years (in the case of interest (including Additional Amounts)) from the later of (a) the date on which
such payment first became due and (b) if the full amount payable has not been received by the Trustee in New York City on or prior to such due date, the date on which the full amount is so received. 

14. Authentication. This Security shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication
hereon shall have been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers or by the Authenticating Agent. 
 15. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process. (a) This Security shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments
entered into and, in each case, performed in said state, except that the authorization and execution by the Company of the Securities and paragraphs 7(a), 19(a), 19(b) and 20 shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Spanish law. The
Regulations of each Syndicate and the duties of and all other matters relating to the Commissioner shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Spanish law. 

(b) In the Indenture, each of the Company and the Guarantor has irrevocably submitted to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of
any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York over any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture, any Security or the Guarantee. In addition, each of the Company and the Guarantor
has irrevocably waived, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any such suit or proceeding brought in such courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any suit or proceeding
arising out of or relating to the Guarantee may also be brought in the courts of Madrid, Spain. 
 (c) As long as
any of the Securities remains outstanding, each of the Company and the Guarantor will at all times have an authorized agent in New York City upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture, the
Guarantee or any Security. Service of process upon such agent and written notice of such service mailed or delivered to the Company or the Guarantor shall to the extent permitted by law be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon
the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in any such legal action or proceeding. Each of the Company and the Guarantor has appointed Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., New York Branch as its agent for such purpose, and has covenanted
and agreed that service of process in any suit or proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent at Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 45th Floor, New York, New York, 10105, U.S.A. (or at such other
address or at the office of such other authorized agent as the Company or the Guarantor may designate in accordance with Section 1.16 of the Indenture). 
 16. Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this
Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 17. Assumption of the
Securities. The Guarantor or any controlled subsidiary of the Guarantor may assume the obligations of the Company under the Securities, subject to the prior consent of the Bank of Spain, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. In
the event of any such assumption, all obligations of the Company under the Securities shall immediately be discharged. Any Securities so assumed, except if assumed by the Guarantor, will have the benefit of the Guarantee. In the event of such an
assumption, Additional Amounts under the Securities will be payable in respect of taxes imposed by the assuming corporation’s jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to the obligation
to pay Additional Amounts in respect of taxes imposed by the Taxing Jurisdiction or the Guarantee, as the case may be, in respect of taxes imposed by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain) on payments of interest or principal made on or subsequent to the
date of such assumption. Additional Amounts with respect to payments of interest or principal due prior to the date of such assumption will be payable only in respect of taxes imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. The Guarantor or the Controlled
Subsidiary thereof that assumes the obligations of the Company in such cases will also be entitled to redeem the Securities in the circumstances described in paragraph 3(b) hereof with 

  
 72 









 
respect to any change or amendment to, or change in the application or official interpretation of the laws or regulations of such jurisdiction, which change or amendment must occur subsequent to
the date of any such assumption if the assuming entity is not incorporated or tax resident in the Kingdom of Spain. In the event of any such assumption, all obligations of the Company under the Securities shall immediately be discharged. 

18. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings appearing in these terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not
alter, limit or define the provisions hereof. 
 19. Subordination. (a) The obligations of the Company under the
Securities, whether on account of principal, interest or otherwise, constitute direct, unconditional and subordinated obligations of the Company. If and to the extent that there is a deficiency in any payment in respect of the Securities and such
deficiency is not remedied as a result of a demand for payment under the Guarantee (but without prejudice to the subordinated status of the Guarantee pursuant to Article 15 of the Indenture) the claims of the Holders in respect of such deficiency
will, in the event of insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure, fall within the category of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined
in the Insolvency Law) and will rank in right of payment after Company Senior Indebtedness and will at all times rank pari passu among themselves and pari passu with all other present and future subordinated credits (créditos subordinados)
(as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company, except for certain subordinated obligations prescribed by law and subordinated obligations which are expressed to rank junior to the Securities. Accordingly, no amount shall be payable by the
Company to the Holders in respect of such deficiency until the claims with respect to all Company Senior Indebtedness (other than as aforesaid) admitted in the insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or
mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure have been satisfied pursuant to the laws of the Kingdom of Spain and any amounts in respect of such deficiency thereafter paid to the Trustee will be pari passu with the amounts payable with respect
to subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company in the insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure and
shall be held by the Trustee in trust to apply the same: 
 (i) first, in payment or satisfaction of the costs,
charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee in or about the execution of the trusts of these presents and any unpaid remuneration of the Trustee; 
 (ii) second, in payment or satisfaction of claims related to Company Senior Indebtedness that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator or which, by administrative
order or decision, are deemed to be included in those claims that have been belatedly or inaccurately communicated to the insolvency administrator; 
 (iii) third, in payment or satisfaction of contractually subordinated payments of principal on subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company
(including any payments in respect of principal of the Securities) and any other payments in respect of subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company other than payments set forth in
subparagraph (iv) below; 
 (iv) fourth, in payment or satisfaction of payments of interest, including
Additional Amounts, if any, and interest, if any, on such interest due on subordinated credits (créditos subordinados) (as defined in the Insolvency Law) of the Company (including any payments in respect of interest and Additional Amounts, if
any, on the Securities) (excluding interest on secured indebtedness to the extent secured); 
 (v) fifth, in
payment or satisfaction of fines or any other monetary penalties or sanctions; 
 (vi) sixth, in payment or
satisfaction of claims of creditors which are related to the Company as set forth in article 93 of the Insolvency Law; and 
 (vii) seventh, in payment or satisfaction of indebtedness arising from transactions set aside by the Spanish court overseeing the insolvency proceeding (rescisión concursal) and in respect of which
such court has determined that the relevant creditor has acted in bad faith; and 
 (viii) eighth, in payment of
claims arising from contracts with reciprocal obligations as referred to in articles 61, 62 and 69 of the Insolvency Law, wherever the court rules, prior to the administrators’ report of insolvency (administración concursal) that
the creditor repeatedly impedes the fulfillment of the contract against the interest of the insolvency. 

  
 73 









 Prior to any insolvency (concurso) of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any
voluntary or mandatory Company liquidation or similar procedure, the Guarantor may become the subject of a Restructuring or Resolution and the Securities or the related Guarantees may be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action, in which case no

of any securities of such Person or any of its affiliates for capital instruments of such Person or any such affiliate, (iv) write-down of the interest and/or principal amount of any securities of such Person or any of its affiliates (including
interest and/or principal amounts that have become due and payable (including principal that has become due and payable at the maturity date) but which have not been paid prior to the execution of the Regulatory Bail-in Action), or
(v) redemption of any securities of such Person or any of its affiliates; provided, in each of (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, that such action is taken by or pursuant to the request or order of any relevant Spanish or
European authority (including the FROB) and the Bank of Spain) pursuant to the exercise of such authority’s Regulatory Bail-in Power with respect to such Person.  

“Regulatory Bail-in Power” means any power existing from time to time to execute, take, request, order or implement, or

Spain to the Guarantor, the Company or any of their respective affiliates, including but not limited to Law 9/2012 and any such laws, regulations, rules or requirements which are implemented, adopted or enacted within the context of a European Union
directive or regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms pursuant to which obligations of a credit institution or investment firm or
any of its affiliates can be subjected to a Regulatory Bail-in Action. 
 “Restructuring” means, with respect
to any Person, that any relevant Spanish authority (including the FROB and the Bank of Spain) shall have announced or determined that such Person has or shall become the subject of a “restructuring” (reestructuración) as such
term is defined in Law 9/2012. 
 (b) Each Holder of this Security by his acceptance thereof authorizes and
directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination of the Securities as provided in this paragraph 19 and Article 14 of the Indenture and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact

 (c) “Company Senior Indebtedness” means Senior Indebtedness of

creditors (acreedores privilegiados), unsecured and unsubordinated creditors (acreedores comunes) and insolvency estate creditors (acreedores contra la masa) of such Person, as determined in accordance with the Insolvency Law; or (ii) if such
Insolvency Law is no longer in effect, all of such rights and claims of all creditors of such Person, unless in any such case the instrument by which the indebtedness or obligations represented by such rights and claims are created, incurred,
assumed or guaranteed by such Person, or are evidenced, provides that they are subordinate, or are not superior, in right of payment to this Security. 
 20. Certain Undertakings and Agreements by Holders. (a) Each Holder by his acceptance of this Security agrees to the subordination of the Guarantee as set forth in the Guarantee. Each Holder
irrevocably waives his rights of priority which would otherwise be accorded to him under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, to the extent necessary to effectuate the subordination provisions of Section (f) of the Guarantee.

 (d) Each Holder and beneficial owner by his acceptance of this Security: (i) acknowledges and agrees that the execution of a Regulatory Bail-in Action with respect to the Securities and/or the
Guarantee shall not give rise to a Default or 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
