contemplated hereby nor compliance by the Holder with any provisions hereof, will (i) violate (with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both), or conflict with, or result in any violation of or default under, any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which the Holder is a party or by which the Holder is bound or to which any of the

Amendment and Restatement (the “Articles”). The Holder acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the provisions and remedies in the Company’s Articles, to the extent the issuance

4.1 Tax Matters. The Holder shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the Company and the Operating
Partnership, in connection with the filing of any tax returns, tax elections or other tax reporting matters related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Company’s or the

 5. Registration Rights. 

5.1 Shelf Registration. The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable after the execution hereof a
prospectus supplement to its effective “shelf” registration statement (No. 333-158958) for an offering of the Shares to be made on a continuous or delayed basis by the Holder pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Such
registration statement, including the exhibits thereto and the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein, as amended (or deemed to have been amended pursuant to Rules 430A, 430B or 430C under the Securities Act) from time to time, is
hereinafter referred to as the “Shelf Registration Statement.” The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective (subject to Section 5.3 hereof)
until the earliest of (A) such time as all of the Shares have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or Rule 144 and (B) the date on which the Shares may be sold by non-affiliates without volume restrictions in accordance
with Rule 144. As a condition to the filing the prospectus supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 5.1, the Holder agrees to deliver to the Company a completed Notice and Questionnaire in the form attached
as Exhibit B hereto and such other information as the Company may reasonably request in writing, if any, at least two business days prior to the anticipated filing date of the prospectus supplement, and thereafter shall notify the Company as

by the Company in connection with such registration. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Shares, or any out-of-pocket expenses of the Holder (or the agents who
manage its accounts) or any transfer taxes relating to the registration or sale of the Shares. 
  

 6 

 5.3 Holdback Agreements. 

(a) If the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or a prospectus supplement
thereunder or the use of any related prospectus or prospectus supplement would require the disclosure of non-public material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential or the disclosure of which
would impede the Company’s ability to consummate a material action, and that the Company is not otherwise required by applicable securities laws or regulations to disclose at such time, upon written notice of such determination by the Company,
the rights of the Holder to offer, sell or distribute any Shares pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Shares pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement shall be suspended until the date upon which the Company notifies the Holder in writing that suspension of such rights for the grounds set forth in this Section 5.3(a) is no longer necessary. The Company agrees to give such
notice as promptly as practicable following the date that such suspension of rights is no longer necessary. 
 (b) If all
reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act have not been filed by the required date without regard to any extension, or if the consummation of any business combination by the Company has occurred or is probable for
purposes of Rule 3-05, Rule 3-14 or Article 11 of Regulation S-X, upon written notice thereof by the Company to the Holder, the rights of the Holder to offer, sell or distribute any Shares pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement
or to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Shares pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement shall be suspended until the date on which the Company has filed such reports or obtained and filed the
financial information required by Rule 3-05, Rule 3-14 or Article 11 of Regulation S-X to be included or incorporated by reference, as applicable, in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company shall notify the Holder as
promptly as practicable when such suspension is no longer required. 
 5.4 Underwriting Agreement. The Company will not
be required to enter into an underwriting or other similar agreement with respect to the disposition of the Shares. 
 5.5
Prospectus Delivery. The Holder agrees that unless the Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to all the conditions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume or manner of sale limitations, it will resell the Shares only pursuant to
the Shelf Registration Statement (subject to Section 5.3 hereof), in a manner described under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the prospectus supplement under the Shelf Registration Statement with respect to the Shares,
and in a manner in compliance with all applicable securities laws, including, without limitation, any applicable prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act (or in compliance with Rule 172 thereunder) and the insider trading restrictions
of the Exchange Act. The Holder acknowledges that the Company is relying on this representation in connection with delivery of the Shares in book-entry form.

 SECTION II. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

The Holder hereby warrants and represents to the Company and the Operating Partnership, that each of the following statements is true and
correct as of the date hereof and shall be true and correct on the Closing Date: 
 A. The Holder is acquiring the Shares solely
for its own account, as principal and not as a nominee or agent for any other person, for investment and not with a view toward resale or distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”). The Holder agrees and acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares to it will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, based upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and it will not, directly or indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (hereinafter, “Transfer”) any of the Shares unless such Transfer complies with the Agreement and
either (i) the Transfer is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and qualification or other compliance under applicable blue sky or state securities laws, or (ii) if requested by the Company, counsel for
the Holder (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) shall have furnished the Company with an opinion, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, to the effect that no such registration is required because of
the availability of an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and qualification or other compliance under applicable blue sky or state securities laws. 

B. The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of the investment in the Shares. 
  

 1 

 C. The Holder understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act
or the securities laws of any state and, as a result thereof, are subject to substantial restrictions on transfer. 
 D. Neither
the Company nor the Operating Partnership solicited the Holder with respect to the acquisition of the Repurchased Notes. The terms of the Exchange were individually negotiated between the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and
the Holder, on the other. 
 E. The Holder hereby represents that it has no intention to dissolve and that it presently engages
in activities other than those related to, and holds assets other than, the Repurchased Notes and the Shares. 
 F. The Holder
does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with respect to any of the Shares. 

G. The Holder has the ability to bear the economic risks of the Shares and is able to afford the complete loss of such investment.

 H. The Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions regarding the Repurchased Notes, the Shares and the business of the
Company and the Operating Partnership, and has acquired sufficient information about the Company and the Operating Partnership to reach an informed decision to sell the Repurchased Notes to the Operating Partnership and acquire the Shares.

 I. The Holder acknowledges that the Shares are subject to certain limitations on ownership, transfer or redemption set forth
in the Company’s charter. 
 J. There has been made available to the Holder and its advisors the opportunity to ask
questions of, and receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the investment in the Shares, and to obtain the documents publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company and any additional
information, to the extent that the Company possesses such information, or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given to it, or to otherwise make an informed investment decision,
and that the Holder has had an opportunity to consult with counsel and other advisers about the investment in the Shares, and that all material documents, records and books pertaining to such investment have, on request, been made available to the
Holder and its advisors. 
 K. The Holder has relied solely on its own investigations in making a decision to sell the
Repurchased Notes and purchase the Shares, and has received no representation or warranty from the Company or the Operating Partnership, or any of their affiliates, employees or agents, other than those set forth in the Agreement.

 State any exceptions here:  

 

	Note:	In no event may such method(s) of distribution take the form of an underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities without the prior agreement of Digital Realty
Trust, Inc. 

 The Company hereby advises the Selling Securityholder of the following Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation
of the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission available at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/guidance/sasinterp.htm regarding short selling: 

“Securities Act Sections—Section 239. Securities Act Section 5. 

239.10. An issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling
shareholders wanted to do a short sale of common stock “against the box” and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that the short sale could not be made before the registration
statement becomes effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to the effective date.
[Nov. 26, 2008].” 
 By returning this Notice and Questionnaire, the Selling Securityholder will be deemed to be aware of the foregoing
interpretation. 
 The undersigned acknowledges that it understands its obligation to comply with the provisions of the Exchange
Act and the rules thereunder relating to stock manipulation, particularly Regulation M thereunder (or any successor rules or regulations), in connection with any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. The
undersigned agrees that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf will engage in any transaction in violation of such provisions. 

In accordance with the undersigned’s obligation under the Exchange Agreement to provide such information as may be required by law
for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, the undersigned agrees to provide any additional information Digital Realty Trust, Inc. may reasonably request and to promptly notify Digital Realty Trust, Inc. of any inaccuracies or changes in the
information provided that may occur at any time while the Shelf Registration Statement remains effective. All notices hereunder and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, or air courier
guaranteeing overnight delivery as follows:

		    	Attention: General Counsel	  	

 In the event any Selling Securityholder transfers all or any portion of the Registrable
Securities listed in Item 3 above after the date on which such information is provided to Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the Selling Securityholder will notify the transferee(s) at the time of transfer of its rights and obligations under this
Notice and Questionnaire and the Exchange Agreement. 
 By signing this Notice and Questionnaire, the undersigned consents to
the disclosure of the information contained herein in its answers to items (1) through (8) above and the inclusion of such information in the Shelf Registration Statement, the related prospectus and any state securities or Blue Sky
applications. The undersigned understands that such information will be relied upon by Digital Realty Trust, Inc. without independent investigation or inquiry in connection with the preparation or amendment of the Shelf Registration Statement, the
related prospectus and any state securities or Blue Sky applications. 
 Once this Notice and Questionnaire is executed by the
Selling Securityholder and received by Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the terms of this Notice and Questionnaire and the representations and warranties contained herein shall be binding on, shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by the
respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. and the Selling Securityholder with respect to the Registrable Securities beneficially owned by such Selling Securityholder and listed in Item
(3) above. This Notice and Questionnaire shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts-of-laws provisions thereof. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, by authority duly given, has caused this Notice and Questionnaire to be executed and delivered
either in person or by its authorized agent.

in accordance with Clause 5(l). 
 (3) If a person who has signed on behalf of the Issuer any Bearer Note or Registered
Certificate not yet issued but held by the Principal Agent or Registrar in accordance with Clause 5(1) ceases to be authorized as described in Clause 21(7), the Principal Agent or Registrar, as applicable (unless the Issuer gives notice to the

continue to have authority to issue any such Notes, and the Issuer hereby warrants to the Principal Agent and Registrar that such Notes shall be, unless notified as aforesaid, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer. Promptly upon such person
ceasing to be authorized, the Issuer shall provide the Principal Agent with replacement Bearer Notes or Registered Certificates (as applicable). Upon receipt of such replacement Bearer Notes or Registered Certificates, the Principal Agent or

Principal Agent shall notify the Issuer by facsimile or email that the Payment has not been received and the Issuer shall repay to the Principal Agent the Advance and shall pay interest on the Advance (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) from (and

 (5) Except in the case of issues where the Principal Agent does not act as receiving bank for the Issuer in respect of the
purchase price of the Notes being issued, if on the relevant Issue Date, a Dealer does not pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Note (the “Defaulted Note”) and, as a result, the Defaulted Note remains in the Principal
Agent’s distribution account with Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg after such Issue Date, the Principal Agent will continue to hold the Defaulted Note pursuant to the order of the Issuer. The Principal Agent shall notify the Issuer
forthwith of the failure of the Dealer to pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Defaulted Note and, subsequently, shall notify the Issuer forthwith upon receipt from the Dealer of the full purchase price in respect of such
Defaulted Note and to pay to the Issuer the amount so received. 
 9. Payments 

(1) Subject to sub-clause 12 below, the Principal Agent shall advise the Issuer, as soon as shall be practicable preceding the date on
which any payment is to be made to the Principal Agent pursuant to this sub-clause (1) of the payment amount, value date and payment instructions and the Issuer will before 10:00 a.m. (London time) on each date on which any payment in respect
of any Notes issued by it becomes due, transfer to an account specified by the Principal Agent such amount in the relevant currency as shall be sufficient for the purposes of such payment in funds settled through such payment system as the Principal
Agent and the Issuer may agree. 
  

 12 

 (2) The Issuer will ensure that no later than 4:00 p.m. (London time) on the second Business
Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the date on which any payment is to be made to the Principal Agent pursuant to sub-clause (1), the Principal Agent shall receive from the paying bank of the Issuer an irrevocable confirmation in the form
of an authenticated SWIFT message that such payment shall be made. For the purposes of this Clause 9, “Business Day” means a day which is both: 

(a) a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are
open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London and New York and any additional business center(s) specified in the applicable Final Terms (“Additional Business Center(s)”); and

 (b) either (1) for any sum payable in a Specified Currency other than euro, a day on which commercial
banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in the principal financial centers (as defined below) of the country of the relevant Specified
Currency (if other than London) or (2) for any sum payable in euro, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer System (“TARGET2 System”) or any successor thereto is operating. 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, the principal financial center of any country for the purpose of this Clause 9 shall be the

certification shall contain all certifications and information set forth in the form set out in Schedule 7, and be retained by the Principal Agent, and a copy shall be furnished to the Issuer, in accordance with Clause 6(1)(c) above. 

(4) Subject to the receipt by the Principal Agent of payment as provided in sub-clause (1) above, the Principal Agent or the
relevant Paying Agent shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts due in respect of the Notes on behalf of the Issuer in the manner provided in the Terms and Conditions. If any payment provided for in sub-clause (l) is made late but otherwise in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Principal Agent and each Paying Agent shall nevertheless make payments in respect of the Notes as aforesaid following receipt by it of such payment. 

(5) If for any reason the Principal Agent considers in its sole discretion that the amounts to be received by the Principal Agent
pursuant to sub-clause (1) will be, or the amounts actually received by it pursuant thereto are, insufficient to satisfy all claims in respect of all payments then falling due in respect of the Notes, neither the Principal Agent nor any Paying
Agent shall be obliged to pay any such claims until the Principal Agent has received the full amount of all such payments. Should the Principal Agent or any Paying Agent elect not to make payment of amounts falling due in respect of the Notes as
aforesaid, it shall advise the Issuer of any such decision as soon as practicable by telephone with confirmation by facsimile or e-mail. 

(6) Without prejudice to sub-clauses (4) and (5), if the Principal Agent pays any amounts to the holders of Notes, Receipts or
Coupons or to any Paying Agent at a time when it has not received payment in full in respect of the relevant Notes in accordance with sub-clause (1) (the excess of the amounts so paid over the amounts so received being the
“Shortfall”), the Issuer will, in addition to paying amounts due under sub-clause (l), pay to the Principal Agent on demand interest (at a rate which represents the Principal Agent’s cost of funding the Shortfall) on the Shortfall (or
the unreimbursed portion thereof) until the receipt in full by the Principal Agent of the Shortfall.

 (7) The Principal Agent shall on demand promptly reimburse each Paying Agent for payments in
respect of Notes properly made by such Paying Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Terms and Conditions unless the Principal Agent has notified the Paying Agent, prior to the opening of business in the location of the office of the Paying
Agent through which payment in respect of the Notes can be made prior to the day on which such Principal Agent has to give payment instructions in respect of the due date of a payment in respect of the Notes, that the Principal Agent does not expect
to receive sufficient funds to make payment of all amounts falling due in respect of such Notes. 
 (8) If the Principal Agent
pays out funds on or after the due date therefor, or becomes liable to pay out funds, on the assumption that a corresponding payment by the Issuer has been or will be made and such payment has in fact not been made by the Issuer, then the Issuer
shall on demand reimburse the Principal Agent for the relevant amount, and pay interest to the Principal Agent on such amount from the date on which it is paid out to the date of reimbursement at a rate per annum equal to the cost to the Principal
Agent of funding the amount paid out, as certified by the Principal Agent and expressed as a rate per annum. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Terms and Conditions as to subordination shall not apply to the Issuer’s obligations
under this sub-clause (8). 
 (9) While any Notes are represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Global Certificate,
all payments or deliveries due in respect of such Notes shall be made to, or to the order of, the holder of the Bearer Global Note or with respect to the Registered Global Certificate, the person or persons for the time being shown in the Register
maintained by the Registrar as the Noteholder or Noteholders, subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions of the Bearer Global Note or Registered Global Certificate. In the case of a CGN, the Paying Agent to which any Bearer Global Note was
presented for the purpose of making such payment shall cause the appropriate Schedule to the relevant Global Note to be annotated so as to evidence the amounts and dates of such payments of principal, interest or other amounts, as applicable. In the
case of any Bearer Global Note which is a NGN, the Principal Agent shall instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to make appropriate entries in their records to reflect such payment. 

(10) All payments in respect of any Bearer Note shall be made outside the United States and its possessions and shall not be made by
transfer to an account at a bank, or delivered to an address, located inside the United States or its possessions by any office or agency of the Issuer, the Principal Agent, or any Paying Agent. Terms used in this sub-clause shall have the meanings
given to them by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations thereunder. 
 (11) If the amount of
principal, interest or other amounts then due for payment is not paid in full (otherwise than by reason of a deduction required by law to be made therefrom), (i) the Paying Agent to which a Bearer Note is presented for the purpose of making
such payment shall, unless the Bearer Note is a NGN, make a record of such shortfall on the Bearer Note and such record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be prima facie evidence that the payment in question has not to that extent been made or
(ii) in the case of any Bearer Global Note which is a NGN, the Principal Agent shall instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to make appropriate entries in their records to reflect such shortfall in payment. 

(12) If any payments or deliveries due on any Physical Delivery Notes, as defined in the Terms and Conditions, including pursuant to
sub-clause 10 above, are required to be paid by delivery of any asset other than cash, then neither the Principal Agent nor any Paying Agent shall be responsible hereunder for the delivery of such non-cash consideration. Instead, the delivery of
such non-cash consideration shall be effected or procured by the Delivery Agent in the manner provided by the Delivery Agency Agreement upon receipt of an Asset Transfer Notice from the relevant Noteholder in the manner contemplated by the Terms and
Conditions. No Entitlement shall be delivered in the United States or its possessions, transferred to an account at a bank or delivered to an address located inside the United States or its possessions, or to, or for the account or benefit of, a
U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). For purposes of taking any action required to be taken by the Principal Agent hereunder, including, but not limited to, any notations required to be made on the
Notes, the Principal Agent may rely upon any notification delivered to it by the Delivery Agent pursuant to the Delivery Agency Agreement as to the amounts delivered by the Delivery Agent thereunder (or any shortfall, as the case may be) on any
Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or any other relevant payment date.

 10. Determinations and Notifications in Respect of Notes and Interest Determination

 (1) The Principal Agent shall make all such determinations and calculations (howsoever described) as it is required to do
under the Terms and Conditions, all subject to and in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, provided that certain calculations with respect to the Notes, and associated publication or notification, shall be made by the relevant Calculation Agent
in accordance with the relevant Calculation Agency Agreement. 
 (2) For the purposes of monitoring the aggregate principal
amount of Notes issued under the Program, the Principal Agent shall determine the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the principal amount of each issue of Notes denominated in another currency, each issue of Zero Coupon Notes, Dual Currency Notes, Index
Linked Notes, Share Linked Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Notes, FX Linked Notes, Commodity Linked Notes, Fund Linked Notes, Inflation Linked Notes, Hybrid Notes, Installment Notes, Partly Paid Notes, Notes Linked to other Underlying Assets, and Amortizing
Notes as follows: 
 (a) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S.
Dollars shall be determined as of the Agreement Date for such Notes on the basis of the spot rate for the sale of the U.S. Dollar against the purchase of the relevant currency quoted by a foreign exchange dealer selected by the Issuer on the
relevant day of calculation; 
 (b) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of Dual Currency Notes, Index Linked Notes,
Share Linked Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Notes, FX Linked Notes, Commodity Linked Notes, Fund Linked Notes, Inflation Linked Notes, Hybrid Notes, and Notes Linked to other Underlying Assets shall be determined by reference to the original nominal amount
of such Notes; 
 (c) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of Partly Paid Notes shall be determined by reference to
the original principal amount of such Notes regardless of the amount paid on the Notes; 
 (d) the
U.S. Dollar equivalent of Zero Coupon Notes and other Notes that are issued at a discount or premium (other than a de minimis discount in the ordinary course), shall be determined by reference to the net proceeds received by the Issuer for the
relevant issue; and 
 (e) the U.S. Dollar equivalent of Installment Notes and Amortizing Notes, shall be
determined by reference to the Specified Denomination of such Notes, less the aggregate of all amounts of principal paid on such Notes up to the relevant day of determination. 

11. Withholding Taxes 

(1) Prior to the first payment on any Note, the Principal Agent shall have submitted to the Issuer, or shall have on file with the
Issuer, a properly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9, and any Paying Agent with respect to such Note shall have submitted to the Issuer, or shall have on file with the Issuer, such IRS form as the Issuer shall determine to
be necessary or advisable. 
 (2) In respect of all Notes the payments on which are specified in the applicable Final Terms as
being subject to United States withholding taxes, the Principal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect to such Note shall, unless otherwise notified by the Issuer, withhold United States federal income tax in accordance with U.S. law on all
payments as specified in the applicable Final Terms, forward the amount withheld to the IRS, and comply with any U.S. tax reporting requirements. 

(3) If the Issuer, in respect of any payment not described in Clause 11(2) above, is required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on
account of taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges, the Issuer shall give written notice thereof to the Principal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect to such Note as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement to make such withholding
or deduction and shall give to the Principal Agent and such Paying Agent such information as the Principal Agent or such Paying Agent shall require to enable it to comply with such requirement, and the Principal Agent and Paying Agent shall comply
with such requirement. 
  

 15 

 (4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in respect of all Registered Notes, the
Principal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect to the Notes shall collect IRS Forms W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-9 (or any successor forms thereto) or other appropriate tax forms from the Noteholders and withhold taxes to the extent required by law.

 (5) The Principal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect to a Note shall report payments to the Noteholders and the IRS as
appropriate under U.S. law. 
 (6) The Principal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect to a Note shall provide the Issuer with
any information required by the Issuer in connection with the Principal Agent’s compliance with the tax requirements of this Clause 11. 

12. Duties of the Principal Agent in Connection with Early Redemption, Put Notices and Asset Transfer Notices 

(1) If so permitted by the applicable Final Terms, and subject to the provisions of the Terms and Conditions, if the Issuer decides to
redeem any outstanding Notes (in whole or in part) for the time being outstanding prior to their Maturity Date or the Interest Payment Date falling in the redemption month (as the case may be) in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, the Issuer
shall give 7 calendar days written notice of such decision to the Principal Agent on or prior to the date on which the Issuer will give notice of such redemption to the Noteholders in accordance with the Terms and Conditions in order to enable the
Principal Agent to undertake its obligations herein and in the Terms and Conditions. 
 (2) Where partial redemptions are to be
effected when there are Definitive Notes outstanding, the Principal Agent will select by lot the Notes to be redeemed from the outstanding Notes in compliance with all applicable laws and stock exchange requirements and deemed by the Principal Agent
to be appropriate and fair. Where partial redemptions are to be effected when there are no Definitive Notes outstanding, the rights of Noteholders will be governed by the standard provisions of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (to be reflected
in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg as either a pool factor or a reduction in nominal amount, at their discretion). Notice of any partial redemption and, when there are Definitive Notes outstanding, of the serial numbers of the
Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Certificates so drawn, will be given by the Principal Agent to the Noteholders in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Agreement. Any selection required to be made by the Principal Agent
pursuant to this Clause 12(2) shall be made in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, but the Principal Agent shall give the Issuer reasonable notice of the time and place proposed for such selection. 

(3) On behalf of and at the expense of the Issuer, the Principal Agent shall publish the notice required in connection with any such
redemption and shall at the same time also publish a separate list of the serial numbers of any Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Certificates previously selected and not presented for redemption. Such notice shall specify the date
fixed for redemption, the redemption amount, the record date, the manner in which redemption will be effected and, in the case of a partial redemption, the serial numbers of the Notes to be redeemed (in the case of Definitive Notes) and the nominal
amounts of the Notes to be redeemed. Such notice will be published in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. The Principal Agent also will notify the other Paying Agents of any date fixed for redemption of any Notes. In addition, the Principal
Agent shall send to each holder of Registered Notes that are called in whole or in part for redemption or exercise of any option, at its address shown in the Register, a copy of such notice together with details of such Noteholder’s Registered
Notes called for redemption or subject to any option and the extent of such redemption or the terms of the exercise of such option. 

(4) Immediately prior to the date on which any notice of redemption is to be given to the Noteholders, the Issuer shall deliver to the
Principal Agent a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of facts showing that all conditions precedent to such redemption have occurred or been satisfied and
shall comply with all notice requirements provided for in the Terms and Conditions. 
  

 16 

 (5) Each Paying Agent, with respect to Bearer Notes, and each Transfer Agent, with respect
to Registered Notes, will keep a stock of Put Notices for Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Notes in the form set out in Schedule 10 hereto, and will make such notices available on demand to Noteholders of such Notes for which the
Terms and Conditions provide for redemption at the option of Noteholders. Each Paying Agent, with respect to Bearer Notes, or Transfer Agent, with respect to Registered Notes, shall promptly transfer a copy of any valid Put Notice that it receives
to the Issuer and the Principal Agent. Upon receipt of any Bearer Definitive Note or Registered Definitive Certificate deposited in the exercise of such option in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, the Paying Agent, with respect to Bearer
Notes, or Transfer Agent, with respect to Registered Notes, with which such Bearer Note or Registered Certificate is deposited shall hold such Bearer Note (together with any Coupons, if any, relating to it and deposited with it) or Registered
Certificate on behalf of the depositing Noteholder (but shall not, save as provided below, release it) until the due date for redemption of the relevant Note consequent upon the exercise of such option, when, subject as provided below and Clause
9(12) above, it shall present such Bearer Note (and any such Coupons, if any) to itself and the Issuer for payment of the amount due thereon together with any interest and any other amounts due on such date in accordance with the Terms and
Conditions and shall pay such amounts in accordance with Condition 6, and if applicable, the directions of such Noteholder contained in the Put Notice. In the event of exercise of any other option, each Paying Agent, with respect to Bearer Notes, or
Transfer Agent, with respect to Registered Notes, shall take steps required of it in the Terms and Conditions and, in the case of Registered Notes, Clause 17. If, prior to such due date for its redemption, such Note becomes immediately due and
payable or if upon due presentation payment of such redemption monies is improperly withheld or refused, the applicable Paying Agent or Transfer Agent shall post such Bearer Note (together with any such Coupons, if any) or such Registered
Certificate by uninsured post to, and at the risk of, the relevant Noteholder unless the Noteholder has otherwise requested and paid the costs of such insurance to the relevant Paying Agent at the time of depositing the Bearer Notes or Registered
Certificates at such address outside the United States and its possessions as may have been given by the Noteholder in the Put Notice or, in the case of Registered Notes where no address has been given, to the address appearing in the Register. At
the end of each period for the exercise of such option, each Paying Agent and each Transfer Agent shall promptly notify the Principal Agent of the principal amount of the Notes in respect of which such option has been exercised with it, together
with their serial numbers (or those of the Registered Certificates representing them), and the Principal Agent shall promptly notify such details to the Issuer. 

(6) Each Paying Agent and Transfer Agent will keep a stock of Asset Transfer Notices for (in the case of the Paying Agents) Bearer
Definitive Notes and (in the case of the Transfer Agent) Registered Definitive Notes which are Physical Delivery Notes in the form set out in Schedule 13, and will make such notices available on demand to holders of such Notes. Each Paying Agent,
with respect to Bearer Notes, and the Transfer Agent, with respect to Registered Notes, shall promptly transfer a copy of any valid Asset Transfer Notice that it receives to the Issuer and the Principal Agent. Upon receipt of any Note deposited in
connection with the delivery of any Entitlement as to a Physical Delivery Note, the Paying Agent or Transfer Agent with which such Bearer Note or Registered Certificate is deposited shall hold such Bearer Note (together with any Coupons, if any,
relating to it and deposited with it) or Registered Certificate on behalf of the depositing Noteholder of such Bearer Note or Registered Certificate (but shall not, except as provided below, release it) until the due date for delivery of the
applicable Entitlement of the relevant Note, when, subject as provided below and Clause 9(12) above, it shall present such Bearer Note (and any such Coupons, if any) or Registered Certificate, together with the serial numbers of the applicable
Bearer Notes or Registered Certificates, to itself, the Issuer and the Delivery Agent for delivery of the Entitlement due thereon in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. If, prior to such due date for delivery, such Note becomes immediately due
and payable or if upon due presentation, delivery or payment of the Entitlement or any monies is improperly withheld or refused, the Paying Agent shall post such Bearer Note (together with any such Coupons, if any) or Registered Certificate by
uninsured post to, and at the risk of, the relevant Noteholder of such Note unless such Noteholder has otherwise requested and paid the costs of such insurance to the relevant Paying Agent at the time of depositing the Bearer Notes or Registered
Certificate at such address outside the United States and its possessions as may have been given by such Noteholder in the Asset Transfer Notice. 

(7) The Principal Agent shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event not later than 3:00 p.m. (local time) on the following
Business Day on which a duly completed Asset Transfer Notice is delivered to it), notify the Issuer, the Calculation Agent (if applicable), and the Delivery Agent (if applicable) of details of the Notes in respect of which an Asset Transfer Notice
has been delivered by any holder of Notes (such notification to 
  

 17 

 
be in such form and in such manner as the Issuer, the relevant Dealer, the Calculation Agent (if applicable), and the Delivery Agent (if applicable) may reasonably request from time to time).

 (8) The Principal Agent shall keep a full and complete record of all Notes and of their exercise, redemption and cancellation
in accordance with this Clause 12 and make such records available at all reasonable times to the Issuer and any persons authorized by it for inspection and for the taking of copies thereof or extracts therefrom. 

(9) The Principal Agent shall, as soon as practicable after the date on which all the Notes represented by any Bearer Global Note or by
any Registered Global Certificate have been redeemed or have become null and void and upon delivery by or on behalf of the common depositary (in the case of a Global Note issued in CGN form or a Registered Global Certificate issued under the CSS) or
the common safekeeper (in the case of a Bearer Global Note issued in NGN form or a Registered Global Certificate issued under the NSS) of the relevant Bearer Global Note or Registered Global Certificate to the Principal Agent, cancel the relevant
Bearer Global Note or Registered Global Certificate or cause it to be cancelled and thereafter, unless otherwise instructed by the Issuer, destroy the relevant Bearer Global Note or Registered Global Certificate and upon written request by the
Issuer certify such destruction to the Issuer. 
 13. Receipt and Publication of Notices 

(1) Upon the receipt by the Principal Agent of a demand or notice from any Noteholder in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, the
Principal Agent shall forward a copy thereof to the Issuer. 
 (2) On behalf of and at the request and expense of the Issuer,
the Principal Agent shall cause to be published all notices required to be given by the Issuer to the Noteholders in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. 

(3) The Principal Agent shall have no responsibility to obtain the certificate of the Issuer delivered by the Issuer to the Principal
Agent pursuant to Condition 6 if such a certificate is required to be issued, nor shall the Principal Agent have any responsibility to notify the Issuer if such a certificate is required to be issued. 

14. Cancellation of Notes, Receipts, Coupons and Talons 

(1) All Bearer Notes which are purchased or redeemed, all Receipts or Coupons which are paid, all Talons which are exchanged, and all
Registered Certificates representing Registered Notes that are purchased or redeemed, shall be delivered outside the United States and its possessions to the Principal Agent or Transfer Agent, as applicable, and shall be cancelled by the Principal
Agent or Transfer Agent through which they are redeemed, paid or exchanged. In addition, the Issuer shall notify the Principal Agent or Transfer Agent, as applicable, in writing of all Notes which are purchased by or on behalf of the Issuer or any
of its subsidiaries and all such Notes (or Registered Certificates in respect of Registered Notes) surrendered to the Principal Agent for cancellation, together (in the case of Bearer Definitive Notes) with all unmatured Receipts, Coupons or Talons
(if any) attached thereto or surrendered therewith, shall be cancelled by the Principal Agent. 
 (2) The Issuer shall have the
right to request that the Principal Agent, in the case of Bearer Notes, or the Registrar, in the case of Registered Notes, provide, without limitation, the following information: 

(a) the aggregate principal amount of Notes which have been purchased or redeemed and the aggregate amount paid in respect
thereof; 
 (b) the number of Notes cancelled together (in the case of Definitive Notes, if any) with details of
all unmatured Receipts, Coupons or Talons (if any) attached thereto or delivered therewith;

months after the date of such repayment or, as the case may be, payment or exchange. 
 (3) The Principal Agent shall destroy
all cancelled Notes, Receipts, Coupons, Talons and Certificates.

the Issuer and any persons authorized by it for inspection and for the taking of copies thereof or extracts therefrom. 
 (5)
All records and certificates made or given pursuant to this Clause 14 and Clause 15 shall make a distinction between Bearer Notes, Receipts, Coupons, Talons and Registered Certificates of each Series. 

(6) The Principal Agent is authorized by the Issuer and instructed to (a) in the case of any Bearer Global Note which is a CGN, to
endorse or to arrange for the endorsement of the relevant Bearer Global Note to reflect the reduction in the nominal amount represented by it by the amount so redeemed or purchased and cancelled and (b) in the case of any Bearer Global Note
which is a NGN, to instruct Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to make appropriate entries in their records to reflect such redemption or purchase and cancellation, as the case may be.

shall deliver each new Registered Certificate to be issued pursuant to Condition 2(b) or (c) within three business days after receipt of the request for exchange, form of transfer or surrender of the Registered Certificate for exchange.
Delivery of the new Registered Certificate(s) shall be made at the specified office of the Transfer Agent or of the Registrar (as the case may be) to whom delivery or surrender of such request for exchange, form of transfer or Registered Certificate
shall have been made or, at the option of the Noteholder making such delivery or surrender as aforesaid and as specified in the relevant request for exchange, form of transfer, or otherwise in writing, be mailed by uninsured mail at the risk of the

insurance as it may specify. In this Clause 16(3), “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks are open for business in the location of the specified office of the Registrar or the Transfer Agent (as the
case may be). 
 17. Regulations Concerning Registered Notes 

The Issuer may, subject to the Terms and Conditions, from time to time with approval of the Principal Agent, the Transfer Agent and the
Registrar (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) promulgate regulations concerning the carrying out of transactions relating to Registered Notes and the forms and evidence to be provided. All such transactions shall be made subject to the
regulations. The initial Regulations are set out in Schedule 14 hereto.

on the request of any Noteholder shall issue voting certificates and block voting instructions in accordance with Schedule 9 hereto and shall forthwith give notice to the Issuer in writing of any revocation or amendment of a block voting
instruction. Each of the Principal Agent, Paying Agents and the Transfer Agent will keep a full and complete record of all voting certificates and block voting instructions issued by it and, not less than 24 hours before the time appointed for
holding a meeting or adjourned meeting, will deposit at such place as the Principal Agent shall designate or approve full particulars of all voting certificates and block voting instructions issued by it in respect of such meeting or adjourned

 20. Repayment by the Principal Agent 

Upon the Issuer being discharged from its obligation to make payments or other deliveries in respect of any Notes pursuant to the
relevant Terms and Conditions, and provided that there is no outstanding, bona fide and proper claim in respect of any such payments, the Principal Agent shall forthwith on written demand pay to the Issuer sums equivalent to any amounts paid to it
by the Issuer for the purposes of such payments. 
 21. Conditions of Appointment 

(1) The Principal Agent shall be entitled to deal with money paid to it by the Issuer for the purpose of this Agreement in the same
manner as other money paid to a banker by its customers except:

(3) The Principal Agent, the Paying Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent hereby undertake to the Issuer to perform such
obligations and duties, and shall be obliged to perform such duties and only such duties as are herein, in the Terms and Conditions and in the Procedures Memorandum specifically set forth and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement or the Notes against the Principal Agent, the Paying Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent, other than the duty to act honestly and in good faith and to exercise the diligence of a reasonably prudent agent in comparable
circumstances. 
 (4) The Agents may consult with legal and other professional advisers and the opinion of such advisers shall
be full and complete protection in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such advisers. 

(5) Each of the Principal Agent, the Paying Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer Agent, shall be protected and shall incur no liability
for or in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered in reliance upon any instruction, request or order from the Issuer or any notice, resolution, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement, cable or other paper or document which it
reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been delivered, signed or sent by the proper party or parties or upon written instructions from the Issuer. 

(6) Any of the Principal Agent, Paying Agents, Registrar and Transfer Agent and their officers, directors and employees may become the
owner of, or acquire any interest in any Notes, Receipts, Coupons or Talons with the same rights that it or he would have if the Principal Agent or the relevant Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent, as the case may be, were not appointed
hereunder, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transactions with the Issuer and may act on, or as depositary, safekeeper, trustee or agent for, any committee or body of Noteholders or Couponholders or in connection with any
other obligations of the Issuer as freely as if the Principal Agent or the relevant Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent, as the case may be, were not appointed hereunder. 

(7) The Issuer shall provide the Agents with a certified copy of the list of persons authorized to execute documents and take action on
its behalf in connection with this Agreement and shall notify the Agents immediately in writing if any of such persons ceases to be so authorized or if any additional person becomes so authorized together, in the case of an additional authorized
person, with evidence satisfactory to the Principal Agent 
  

 22 

 
that such person has been so authorized, provided, however, that the Agents shall not incur any liability for any losses, claims or damages resulting from the Issuer’s failure to provide
such notification to the Agents. 
 22. Communication Between the Parties 

A copy of all communications relating to the subject matter of this Agreement between the Issuer and the Noteholders, Receiptholders or
Couponholders and any of the Paying Agents or the Transfer Agent shall be sent to the Principal Agent by the relevant Paying Agent or the Transfer Agent. 

23. Changes in Principal Agent, Paying Agents, Registrar and Transfer Agent 

(1) The Issuer agrees that, for so long as any Note is outstanding, or until monies for the payment of all amounts in respect of all
outstanding Notes have been made available to the Principal Agent or to the Delivery Agent, as applicable, or have been returned to the Issuer as provided herein: 

(a) so long as the Notes are listed on any stock exchange, there will at all times be a Paying Agent with a specified
office in such place as may be required by the rules and regulations of the relevant stock exchange; 
 (b) there
will at all times be a Paying Agent with a specified office in a city in continental Europe; 
 (c) there will at
all times be a Principal Agent; 
 (d) the Issuer will maintain a Paying Agent in a member state of the European
Union that will not be obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to Directive (as defined in Condition 8) or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; and 

(e) there will at all times be a Transfer Agent and Registrar with a specified office outside the United Kingdom.

 In addition, the Issuer shall immediately appoint a Paying Agent having a specified office in New York City in the
circumstances described in Condition 5(c). Any variation, termination, appointment or change only shall take effect (other than in the case of insolvency (as provided in sub-clause (5)), when it shall be of immediate effect) after not less than 30
nor more than 45 calendar days’ prior notice thereof shall have been given to the Noteholders in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. 

(2) The Principal Agent may (subject as provided in sub-clause (4)) at any time resign as Principal Agent by giving at least 90
calendar days’ written notice to the Issuer of such intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become effective, provided that such date shall never be less than three months after the receipt of such
notice by the Issuer unless the Issuer agrees to accept less notice. 
 (3) The Principal Agent may (subject as provided in
sub-clause (4)) be removed at any time on at least 45 calendar days’ notice by the filing with it of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer, specifying such removal and the date when it shall become effective. 

(4) Any resignation under sub-clause (2) or removal under sub-clause (3) shall only take effect upon the appointment by the
Issuer as hereinafter provided, of a successor Principal Agent, and (other than in cases of insolvency of the Principal Agent) on the expiration of the notice to be given under Clause 25. The Issuer agrees with the Principal Agent that if, by the
day falling ten calendar days before the expiration of any notice under sub-clause (2), the Issuer has not appointed a successor Principal Agent, then the Principal Agent, shall be entitled, on behalf of the Issuer, to appoint as a successor
Principal Agent in its place a reputable financial institution of good standing as it may reasonably determine to be capable of performing the duties of the Principal Agent hereunder. 

 

 23 

 (5) In case at any time the Principal Agent resigns, or is removed, or becomes incapable of
acting or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment of an administrator, liquidator or administrative or other receiver of
all or a substantial part of its property, or admits in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they mature or suspends payment thereof, or if any order of any court is entered approving any petition filed by or against it under the
provisions of any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if a receiver of it or of all or a substantial part of its property is appointed or any officer takes charge or control of it or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, a successor Principal Agent, which shall be a reputable financial institution of good standing, may be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument in writing filed with the successor Principal Agent. Upon
the appointment as aforesaid of a successor Principal Agent and acceptance by it of such appointment and (other than in the case of insolvency of the Principal Agent) upon expiration of the notice to be given under Clause 25, the Principal Agent, so
superseded shall cease to be the Principal Agent, hereunder. 
 (6) Subject to sub-clause (l): 

(a) the Issuer may, after prior consultation (other than in the case of insolvency of any Paying Agent, Registrar or
Transfer Agent) with the Principal Agent, terminate the appointment of any of the Paying Agents, Registrar or Transfer Agent at any time; or 

(b) the Issuer may in respect of the Program, or in respect of any Series of Notes, if so required by the relevant stock
exchange or regulatory body, appoint one or more additional Paying Agents, Registrars or Transfer Agents by giving to the Principal Agent, and to the relevant Paying Agent(s), Registrar(s) or Transfer Agent(s) at least 10 calendar days’ notice
in writing to that effect. 
 (7) Subject to sub-clause (l), all or any of the Agents may resign their respective appointments
hereunder at any time by giving the Issuer and the Principal Agent at least 90 calendar days’ written notice to that effect. 

(8) Upon its resignation or removal becoming effective, the Principal Agent or the relevant Agent: 

(a) shall, in the case of the Principal Agent, forthwith transfer all monies held by it hereunder and the records referred
to in Clause 14(4) to the successor Principal Agent hereunder; 
 (b) shall be entitled to the payment by the
Issuer of its commissions, fees and expenses for the services theretofore rendered hereunder in accordance with the terms of Clause 29; and 

(c) shall repay to the Issuer the unearned portion, calculated on a pro rata basis, of its compensation, if any.

 (9) Upon its appointment becoming effective, a successor Principal Agent and any new Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer
Agent, without further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of its predecessor or, as the case may be, a Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent with like
effect as if originally named as Principal Agent or (as the case may be) a Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent hereunder. 

24. Merger and Consolidation 

Any entity into which the Principal Agent, any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent may be merged or converted, or any entity with
which the Principal Agent, any of the Paying Agents, the Registrar or Transfer Agent may be consolidated or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Principal Agent or any of the Paying Agents, Registrar or
Transfer Agent shall be a party, or any entity to which the Principal Agent or any of the Paying Agents, the Registrar or Transfer Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all 

 

 24 

 
or substantially all the assets or the corporate trust business of the Principal Agent, any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent shall, on the date when such merger, conversion,
consolidation or transfer becomes effective and to the extent permitted by any applicable laws, become the successor Principal Agent or, as the case may be, Transfer Agent, Registrar or Paying Agent under this Agreement without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless otherwise required by the Issuer, and after the said effective date all references in this Agreement to the Principal Agent or, as the case may be, such Paying Agent,
Registrar or Transfer Agent shall be deemed to be references to such entity. Written notice of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or transfer forthwith shall be given to the Issuer by the Principal Agent, Paying Agent(s), Registrar or
Transfer Agent. 
 25. Notification of Changes to Principal Agent, Paying Agents, Registrar or Transfer Agent 

Following receipt of notice of resignation from the Principal Agent, any Paying Agents, Registrar or Transfer Agent and forthwith upon
appointing a successor Principal Agent or, as the case may be, other Paying Agents, Registrar or Transfer Agent or on giving notice to terminate the appointment of any Principal Agent or, as the case may be, Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer
Agent, the Principal Agent (on behalf of and at the expense of the Issuer) shall give or cause to be given not more than 45 calendar days’ nor less than 30 calendar days’ prior notice thereof to the Noteholders in accordance with the Terms
and Conditions.

than 45 calendar days thereafter. The Principal Agent, any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent (on behalf and at the expense of the Issuer) shall within 15 calendar days of receipt of such notice (unless the appointment of the Principal Agent
or the relevant Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent, as the case may be, is to terminate pursuant to Clause 24 on or prior to the date of such change) give or cause to be given not more than 45 calendar days’ nor less than 30 calendar

against the Principal Agent, Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent as a result of or in connection with the appointment or the exercise of or performance of the powers, discretions, authorities and duties of the Principal Agent, Paying Agent,

analogous process of any party hereto or for any other reason, any payment under or in connection with this Agreement is made or fails to be satisfied in a currency (the “Other Currency”) other than that in which the relevant payment is
expressed to be due (the “Required Currency”) under this Agreement, then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into the Required Currency at the rate of exchange on the date of payment or, if it is not practicable for the payee
to purchase the Required Currency with the Other Currency on the date of payment, at the rate of exchange as soon thereafter as it is practicable for it to do so or, in the case of a liquidation, insolvency or analogous process, at the rate of
exchange on the latest date permitted by applicable law for the determination of liabilities in such liquidation, insolvency or analogous process) actually received by the payee falls short of the amount due under the terms of this Agreement, the
payor shall, as a separate and independent obligation, indemnify and hold harmless the payee against the amount of such shortfall. For the purpose of this Clause 30, “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the payee is able on the
relevant date to purchase the Required Currency with the Other Currency and shall take into account any premium and other costs of exchange.

information as may be required from time to time by any applicable law, regulation or guideline promulgated by (i) any relevant United States governmental regulatory authority in respect of the issue and purchase of Notes or (ii) any other
relevant governmental regulatory authority in respect of the issue and purchase of Notes denominated in the applicable currency of such governmental regulatory authority.

with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. 
  

 27 

 (2) The Issuer and the Agents each hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any United States federal court sitting in New York City, the Borough of Manhattan over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement, any Note, Receipt, Coupon or Talon, as the case may be (together, the
“Proceedings”). The Issuer and the Agents each irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may have to the laying of the venue of the Proceedings brought in such a court and any claim that the
Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Issuer and the Agents each agree that final judgment in the Proceedings brought in such a court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer or the Agents, as the case may be, and may be
enforced in any court of the jurisdiction to which the Issuer or the Agents is subject by a suit upon such judgment, provided that the service of process is effected upon the Issuer and the Agents in the manner specified in subsection

offices or upon such agent with written notice of such service mailed or delivered to the Issuer or the Registrar, respectively shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Issuer or
the Registrar, respectively, in the Proceedings. Each of the Issuer and the Registrar hereby appoints the New York office of CT Corporation System, presently situated at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, U.S.A., as its respective agent

Issuer may agree to modifications of or amendments to this Agreement, the Notes, the Receipts or the Coupons solely set forth in Condition 15.

 BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION 

EURO MEDIUM-TERM NOTES 

BEARER TEMPORARY GLOBAL NOTE 
  

							
	COMMON CODE:	 		 		 	ISIN:

 This Global Note is a Temporary Global
Note in bearer form without interest coupons in respect of a duly authorized Series of Euro Medium-Term Notes (the “Notes”) of Bank of America Corporation (the “Issuer”) described, and having the provisions specified, in the
applicable Final Terms (the “Final Terms”), which provisions are incorporated herein. References herein to the Terms and Conditions shall be to the Terms and Conditions of the Notes as set out in Schedules 6-1 and 6-2 to the Agency
Agreement (as defined below) as modified and supplemented by the information set out in the Final Terms and which are incorporated herein by reference, but in the event of any conflict between the provisions of those Schedules and the information
set out in the Final Terms, the Final Terms will prevail. 
 Words and expressions defined or set out in the Terms and
Conditions and/or the Final Terms shall bear the same meaning when used herein. 
 This Global Note is issued subject to, and
with the benefit of, the Terms and Conditions and an Amended and Restated Agency Agreement (the “Agency Agreement,” which expression shall be construed as a reference to that agreement as the same may be amended, revised and/or
supplemented from time to time) dated as of July 22, 2010, and made among Bank of America Corporation, Bank of America, N.A., London Branch (the “Principal Agent”), and Merrill Lynch International Bank Limited (the “Transfer
Agent” and “Registrar” in respect of Registered Notes). 
 For value received, the Issuer, subject to and in
accordance with the Terms and Conditions, promises to pay to the bearer hereof on each Installment Date the amount payable on such Installment Date in respect of the Notes represented by this Global Note (if the Notes represented by this Global Note
are Installment Notes) and on the Maturity Date, on the Interest Payment Date, or on the Delivery Date, as the case may be, or on such earlier date as any of the Notes represented by this Global Note may become due and payable in accordance with the
Terms and Conditions, the amount payable or deliverable, as the case may be, on redemption of such Notes then represented by this Global Note becoming so due and payable, and to pay interest (if any) or to deliver any Entitlement (if any) on the
Notes from time to time represented by this Global Note calculated and payable as provided in the Terms and Conditions together with any other sums payable under the Terms and Conditions, upon presentation and following the delivery of an Asset
Transfer Notice (in the case of Physical Delivery Notes) as provided in the Agency Agreement, and, at maturity, surrender of this Global Note to or to the order of the Principal Agent or any of the other paying agents located outside the United
States and its possessions (except as provided in the Terms and Conditions) from time to time appointed by the Issuer in respect of the Notes, but in each case subject to the requirements as to certification provided herein. 

If the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, the nominal amount of Notes represented
by this Global Note shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records of both Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg” and,
together with Euroclear, the “Relevant Clearing Systems”). The records of the Relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this Global Note means the records that each Relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the
amount of such customer’s interest in the Notes) shall be conclusive evidence of the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a Relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be
made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the Relevant Clearing System at that time. 

 

 31 

 If the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a Classic
Global Note, the nominal amount of the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be the amount stated in the applicable Final Terms or, if lower, the nominal amount most recently recorded by or on behalf of the Issuer, in the relevant column in
Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or in Schedule 2. 
 On any redemption, payment of an Installment Amount, delivery or purchase
and cancellation of any of the Notes represented by this Global Note, the Issuer shall procure that: 
 (a) if the applicable
Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, details of such redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered pro rata in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems
and, upon any such entry being made, the nominal amount of the Notes recorded in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems and represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed or purchased and
cancelled or by the amount of such installment so paid; or 
 (b) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is
intended to be a Classic Global Note, details of such redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered in the relevant column in Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 hereto recording any such
redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer. Upon any such redemption, payment of an Installment Amount, delivery or purchase and cancellation, the principal
amount of such Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed or purchased and cancelled. 

Prior to the Exchange Date (as defined below), all payments (if any) on this Global Note will only be made to the bearer hereof to the
extent that there is presented to the Principal Agent by Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear a certificate, substantially in the form set out in Schedule 7 to the Agency Agreement, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person
entitled to a particular principal amount of the Notes (as shown by its records) a certificate in or substantially in the form of the certificate as set out in Schedule 8 to the Agency Agreement. Payments or deliveries due in respect of Notes for
the time being represented by this Global Note shall be made to the bearer of this Global Note and each payment so made will discharge the Issuer’s obligations in respect thereof. Any failure to make the entries referred to in sub-paragraphs
(a) and (b) above shall not affect such discharge. After the Exchange Date, the bearer of this Global Note will not be entitled to receive any payment of interest hereon. 

On or after the Exchange Date (as defined below) this Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part (free of charge) for, as specified
in the Final Terms, either (a) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, interests recorded in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems in a Bearer Permanent Global Note or, if the
applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a Classic Global Note, a Bearer Permanent Global Note, which, in either case, is in or substantially in the form set out in Schedule 2 to the Agency Agreement (together with the
Final Terms attached to it), in each case upon notice being given by a Relevant Clearing System acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest in this Global Note or, (b) under certain limited circumstances, security printed Definitive
Notes and, (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons in the form set out in Parts I, II, III, and IV respectively of Schedule 3 to the Agency Agreement (on the basis that all the appropriate details have been included on the face of such
Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons and the Final Terms have been incorporated on such Definitive Notes) and subject to such notice period as is specified in the Final Terms. The “Exchange Date” for this
Global Note will normally be the 40th calendar day after the later of the date on which the Issuer receives the proceeds of the sale of the Global Note and the closing date for the Global Note. However, if the Issuer, a Dealer or any distributor, as
defined in Treasury Regulation Sec. 1.163-5(c)(2)(i)(D)(4), holds a Note represented by this Global Note as part of an unsold allotment or subscription for more than 40 calendar days after the later of the date on which the Issuer receives the
proceeds of the sale of the Global Note and the closing date for the Global Note, the Exchange Date with respect to such Note will be the day after the date on which the Issuer, Dealer or distributor sells such Note. 

 

 32 

 This Global Note may be exchanged by the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or
Sunday) on which banks are open for business in London. The Issuer shall procure that Definitive Notes and interests in the Bearer Permanent Global Note shall be so issued and delivered and (in the case of the Bearer Permanent Global Note where the
applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note) recorded in the records of the Relevant Clearing System in exchange for only that portion of this Global Note in respect of which there shall have been
presented to the Principal Agent by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg a certificate, substantially in the form set out in Schedule 7 to the Agency Agreement, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a
beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Notes (as shown by its records) a certificate from such person in or substantially in the form of the certificate set out in Schedule 8 to the Agency Agreement, unless such certificate has
already been given in accordance with the above provisions. The aggregate principal amount of interests in a Bearer Permanent Global Note issued upon an exchange of this Global Note subject to the terms hereof, will be equal to the aggregate
principal amount of this Global Note submitted by the bearer hereof for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note). 

On an exchange of the whole of this Global Note, this Global Note shall be surrendered to the Principal Agent. On an exchange of only
part of this Global Note, the Issuer shall procure that: 
 (a) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is
intended to be a New Global Note, details of such exchange shall be entered pro rata in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems; or 

(b) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a Classic Global Note, details of such exchange shall
be entered in the relevant space in Schedule 2 hereto recording such exchange and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer and the principal amount of this Global Note and the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the
principal amount so exchanged. 
 If, following the issue of a Bearer Permanent Global Note in exchange for some of the Notes
represented by this Global Note, further Notes represented by this Global Note are to be exchanged for interests in a Bearer Permanent Global Note, such exchange may be effected, subject as provided herein, without the issue of a new Bearer
Permanent Global Note, (i) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, recording the details of such increase in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems, or (ii) if the applicable
Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, by the Issuer or its agent endorsing Schedule 2 of the Bearer Permanent Global Note previously issued to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of
such Bearer Permanent Global Note by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Bearer Permanent Global Note which would otherwise have been issued on such exchange. 

Until the exchange of the whole of this Global Note as aforesaid, the bearer hereof shall in all respects (except as otherwise provided
herein) be entitled to the same benefits as if such bearer were the bearer of Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons in the form set out in Parts I, II, III and Part IV, respectively, of Schedule 3 to the Agency
Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Bearer Temporary Global Note, the Issuer
irrevocably agrees, for the benefit of such Noteholders and their successors and assigns, that each Noteholder or its successors or assigns may file without the consent and to the exclusion of the bearer hereof, any claim, take any action or
institute any proceeding to enforce, directly against the Issuer, the obligation of the Issuer hereunder to pay any amount due or to become due in respect of each Note represented by this Bearer Temporary Global Note which is credited to such
Noteholder’s securities account with Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg without the production of this Bearer Temporary Global Note; provided that the bearer hereof shall not theretofore have filed a claim, taken action or instituted
proceedings to enforce the same in respect of such Note. 
 Until exchanged in full for the Bearer Permanent Global Note, this
Bearer Temporary Global Note in all respects shall be entitled to the same benefits under, and subject to the same terms and conditions of, the Agency Agreement as the Bearer Permanent Global Note authenticated and delivered thereunder, except that
neither the Holder hereof nor the beneficial owners of this Bearer Temporary Global Note shall be entitled to receive payment hereon on or after the Exchange Date. 

 

 33 

 This Bearer Temporary Global Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, United States of America, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. 
 This Bearer
Temporary Global Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been duly signed by or on behalf of the Principal Agent acting in accordance with the Agency Agreement. If the
applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be held in a manner which would allow Eurosystem eligibility, this Global Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until it is duly effectuated by the entity
appointed as common safekeeper by the Relevant Clearing Systems.

EURO MEDIUM-TERM NOTES 

BEARER PERMANENT GLOBAL NOTE 
  

			
	COMMON CODE:	  	ISIN:                           
             

 This Global Note is a Permanent
Global Note in bearer form without interest coupons in respect of a duly authorized Series of Euro Medium-Term Notes (the “Notes”) of Bank of America Corporation (the “Issuer”) described, and having the provisions specified, in
the applicable Final Terms (the “Final Terms”), which provisions are incorporated herein. References herein to the Terms and Conditions shall be to the Terms and Conditions of the Notes as set out in Schedules 6-1 and 6-2 to the Agency
Agreement (as defined below) as modified and supplemented by the information set out in the Final Terms and which are incorporated herein by reference, but in the event of any conflict between the provisions of those Schedules and the information
set out in the Final Terms, the Final Terms will prevail. 
 Words and expressions defined or set out in the Terms and
Conditions and/or the Final Terms shall bear the same meaning when used herein. 
 This Global Note is issued subject to, and
with the benefit of, the Terms and Conditions and an Amended and Restated Agency Agreement (the “Agency Agreement,” which expression shall be construed as a reference to that agreement as the same may be amended, restated and/or
supplemented from time to time) dated as of July 22, 2010, and made among Bank of America Corporation, Bank of America, N.A., London Branch (the “Principal Agent”), and Merrill Lynch International Bank Limited (the “Transfer
Agent” and “Registrar” in respect of Registered Notes). 
 For value received, the Issuer, subject to and in
accordance with the Terms and Conditions, promises to pay to the bearer hereof on each Installment Date the amount payable on such Installment Date in respect of the Notes represented by this Global Note (if the Notes represented by this Global Note
are Installment Notes) and on the Maturity Date, on the Interest Payment Date or on the Delivery Date, as the case may be, or on such earlier date as any of the Notes represented by this Global Note may become due and payable in accordance with the
Terms and Conditions, the amount payable or deliverable, as the case may be, on redemption of such Notes then represented by this Global Note becoming so due and payable, and to pay interest (if any) or to deliver any Entitlement (if any) on the
Notes from time to time represented by this Global Note calculated and payable as provided in the Terms and Conditions together with any other sums payable under the Terms and Conditions, upon presentation and following the delivery of an Asset
Transfer Notice (in the case of Physical Delivery Notes) as provided in the Agency Agreement, and, at maturity, surrender of this Global Note to or to the order of the Principal Agent or any of the other paying agents located outside the United
States and its possessions (except as provided in the Terms and Conditions) from time to time appointed by the Issuer in respect of the Notes, but in each case subject to the requirements as to certification provided herein. 

If the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, the nominal amount of Notes represented
by this Global Note shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records of both Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg” and,
together with Euroclear, the “Relevant Clearing Systems”). The records of the Relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this Global Note means the records that each Relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the
amount of such customer’s interest in the Notes) shall be conclusive evidence of the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a Relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be
made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the Relevant Clearing System at that time. 

 

 42 

 If the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a Classic
Global Note, the nominal amount of the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be the amount stated in the applicable Final Terms or, if lower, the nominal amount most recently envisaged by or on behalf of the Issuer, in the relevant column in
Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or in Schedule 2. 
 On any redemption, payment of an Installment Amount, delivery or purchase
and cancellation of, any of the Notes represented by this Global Note, the Issuer shall procure that: 
 (a) if the applicable
Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, details of such redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered pro rata in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems
and, upon any such entry being made, the nominal amount of the Notes recorded in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems and represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed or purchased and
cancelled or by the amount of such installment so paid; or 
 (b) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is
intended to be a Classic Global Note, details of such redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered in the relevant column in Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 hereto recording any such
redemption, payment, delivery or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer. Upon any such redemption, payment of an Installment Amount, delivery or purchase and cancellation, the principal
amount of such Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed or purchased and cancelled. 

The Notes represented by this Global Note were represented originally by one or more Bearer Temporary Global Notes (each Tranche of Notes
comprised in the Series of Notes to which this Global Note relates having been represented originally by one Bearer Temporary Global Note). Unless any such Bearer Temporary Global Note was exchanged in whole on the issue hereof, an interest in such
Bearer Temporary Global Note may be further exchanged, on the terms and conditions set out therein, for an interest in this Global Note. The Issuer shall procure that: 

(a) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, details of such exchange shall be
entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems; or 
 (b) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note
is intended to be a Classic Global Note, details of such exchange shall be entered in Schedule 2 hereto to reflect the increase in the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note due to each such exchange, whereupon the principal amount hereof
shall be increased for all purposes by the amount so exchanged and endorsed. 
 In certain circumstances, further notes may be
issued which are intended on issue to be consolidated and form a single Series with the Notes. In such circumstances, the Issuer shall procure that: 

(a) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, details of such further notes may be
entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems such that the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note may be increased by the amount of such further notes so issued; or 

(b) if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a Classic Global Note, details of such further notes
shall be entered in the relevant column in Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 hereto recording such exchange and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer, whereupon the nominal amount of the Notes represented by this Global Note

  

 43 

 
shall be increased by the nominal amount of any such Bearer Temporary Global Note so exchanged. 

This Global Note may be exchanged in whole, but not in part (free of charge), for security-printed Definitive Notes, in the circumstances
provided for in the Terms and Conditions, and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons in the form set out in Parts I, II, III and IV, respectively, of Schedule 3 to the Agency Agreement (on the basis that all the appropriate details have
been included on the face of such Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons and the Final Terms have been incorporated on such Definitive Notes). Subject as aforesaid, this exchange will be made upon presentation of this
Global Note by the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are open for business in London at the office of the Principal Agent specified above. The aggregate principal amount of Definitive Notes issued upon an
exchange of this Global Note will be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note submitted by the bearer hereof for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note
entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems (if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note) or most recently entered in the relevant column in Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or
Schedule 2 hereto (if the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is not intended to be a New Global Note). 
 On
an exchange of the whole of this Global Note, this Global Note shall be surrendered to the Principal Agent. 
 Until the
exchange of the whole of this Global Note as aforesaid, the bearer hereof in all respects shall be entitled to the same benefits as if such bearer were the bearer of Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons in the form
set out in Parts I, II, III and IV, respectively, or Schedule 3 to the Agency Agreement (on the basis that all appropriate, details have been included on the face of such Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons and the
Final Terms have been incorporated on such Definitive Notes). 
 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Bearer Permanent Global Note, the holder of this Bearer Permanent Global Note shall be the only person entitled to receive payments in respect to the Notes represented by this Bearer Permanent Global Note and the Issuer will be discharged by payment
to, or to the order of, the holder of this Bearer Permanent Global Note in respect of each amount so paid. Any failure to make the entries referred to in above shall not affect such discharge. Each of the persons shown in the records of Euroclear or
Clearstream, Luxembourg as the beneficial holder of a particular principal amount of Notes represented by this Bearer Permanent Global Note must look solely to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, for such holder’s share of
each payment so made by the Issuer to, or to the order of, the holder of this Bearer Permanent Global Note. No person other than the holder of this Bearer Permanent Global Note shall have any claim against the Issuer in respect of any payments or
deliveries due on this Bearer Permanent Global Note. 
 This Bearer Permanent Global Note shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, United States of America, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. 

This Bearer Permanent Global Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon
shall have been duly signed by or on behalf of the Principal Agent acting in accordance with the Agency Agreement. If the applicable Final Terms indicate that this Global Note is intended to be held in a manner which would allow Eurosystem
eligibility, this Global Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until it is duly effectuated by the entity appointed as common safekeeper by the Relevant Clearing Systems.

Definitive Notes (1) if an Event of Default (as defined herein) occurs and is continuing, (2) if the Issuer is notified that a Relevant Clearing System has been closed for business for a continuous period of 14 calendar days (other than by
reason of holiday, statutory, or otherwise) after the original issuance of the Notes or has announced an intention permanently to cease business or has in fact done so and no Alternative Clearing System approved by the Noteholders is available, or

applicable, in the applicable Specified Denomination, representing the full principal amount of the applicable Global Note. 

The Final Terms for the Notes are attached hereto or endorsed hereon and supplement these Terms and Conditions and may specify other
terms and conditions which, to the extent so specified or to the extent inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions, shall replace or modify these Terms and Conditions for purposes of the Notes. References herein to the “applicable Final
Terms” are to the relevant Final Terms attached hereto or endorsed hereon. 
  

 Schedule 6-1-2 

 As used herein, “Series” means a Tranche of Notes, together with any
further Tranche or Tranches of Notes, which are (1) expressly to be consolidated and form a single series and (2) identical in all respects (including as to listing) except for the date on which such Notes will be issued (the
“Issue Date”), for interest-bearing Notes, the date from which such Notes bear interest (the “Interest Commencement Date”), which will be the Issue Date unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, and
the price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Notes) at which such Notes will be issued (the “Issue Price”). The expressions “Notes of the relevant Series” and “holders of Notes of the
relevant Series” and related expressions shall be construed accordingly. As used herein, “Tranche” means Notes (whether in bearer global form, registered global form, bearer definitive form, or registered definitive form)
which are identical in all respects (including as to listing). 
 Copies of the amended and restated program agreement, dated as
of July 25, 2008 among the Issuer and the Dealers named or to be appointed thereunder (as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Program Agreement”), and the Final Terms applicable to the Notes are
available for inspection without charge at, and copies may be obtained from, the specified offices of each of the Principal Agent and each Paying Agent, the Registrar and each Transfer Agent, except that the applicable Final Terms relating to an
unlisted Note only will be available for inspection by a Noteholder upon proof satisfactory to the relevant Paying Agent as to ownership of the Note. The Noteholders, the Receiptholders, and the Couponholders are deemed to have notice of, and are
entitled to the benefit of, all the provisions of the Agency Agreement and the applicable Final Terms, which are binding on them. 

The applicable Final Terms will specify whether settlement shall be by way of cash payment (“Cash Settlement”) or by
physical delivery (“Physical Settlement”). Notes to which Cash Settlement applies are “Cash Settled Notes” and Notes to which Physical Settlement applies are “Physical Delivery Notes”. Any reference
in these Conditions to Physical Delivery Notes shall mean Notes in respect of which a number of underlying shares, bonds, securities, commodities, depository receipts, or such other assets as may be specified in the applicable Final Terms (the
“Relevant Asset(s)”) plus or minus any amount due to or from the Noteholder in respect of each Note (the “Entitlement”) is deliverable and/or payable by reference to one or more Relevant Assets as the Issuer and the
relevant Dealer(s) may agree and as set out in the applicable Final Terms. In respect of Physical Delivery Notes, the Issuer will enter into one or more delivery agency agreements (each, a “Delivery Agency Agreement”) with one or
more delivery agents (each, a “Delivery Agent”). The calculation agent in respect of the Notes (the “Calculation Agent”) and the Delivery Agent in respect of the Notes (if applicable) will be specified in the
applicable Final Terms. 
 If Averaging is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the applicable Final Terms

References in these Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, to Cash Settled Notes shall be deemed to include references to
Physical Delivery Notes which include the Issuer’s option (as set out in the applicable Final Terms) to elect cash settlement upon redemption of such Notes pursuant to Physical Delivery Condition 4 and where settlement upon redemption is to be

applicable Final Terms) to elect physical delivery of the Entitlement in settlement upon redemption of such Notes pursuant to Physical Delivery Condition 4 and where settlement upon redemption is to be by way of physical delivery.

these Terms and Conditions unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise stated.

similar reference asset or basket of debt obligations, if one or more of certain events relating to the creditworthiness of the issuer or issuers (which do not include the Issuer) of such debt obligations occurs before the scheduled Maturity Date.

  

 Schedule 6-1-4 

 This Note is either a Senior Note (as defined herein) or a Subordinated Note (as defined
herein), as specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
 Bearer Notes are serially numbered and may be issued with Coupons (and,
where appropriate, a Talon) attached, save in the case of Zero Coupon Notes in which case references to interest (other than in relation to interest due after the Maturity Date), Coupons and Couponholders in these Conditions are not applicable.
Installment Notes in bearer form are issued with one or more Receipts attached. 
 Subject as set forth below, title to the
Bearer Notes, Receipts, and Coupons will pass by delivery. Title to the Registered Notes shall pass by registration in the register that the Issuer shall procure to be kept by the Registrar in accordance with the provisions of the Agency Agreement
(the “Register”). The Issuer and any Paying Agent may (except as otherwise required by law) deem and treat the bearer of any Bearer Note, Receipt, or Coupon as the absolute owner thereof (whether or not overdue and notwithstanding
any notice of ownership or writing thereon or notice of any previous loss or theft thereof) for all purposes but, in the case of any Bearer Global Note, without prejudice to the provisions set out in the next paragraph. 

So long as any of the Notes are represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Global Certificate held on behalf of the Relevant
Clearing System, each person who is shown in the records of the Relevant Clearing System as the holder of a particular nominal amount of such Notes (any certificate or other document issued by the Relevant Clearing System as to the nominal amount of
Notes standing on the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, except in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Principal Agent, the Registrar, any Transfer Agent, and any other Paying Agent as
the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for all purposes, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on, or deliveries in respect of, the Notes, the bearer of the relevant Bearer
Global Note or, in the case of a Registered Global Note, the person or persons for the time being shown in the Register as at the Record Date maintained by the Registrar as the Noteholder or Noteholders, shall be treated by the Issuer, the Principal
Agent, and any Paying Agent as the holder of such Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of the relevant Global Note (and the expressions “Noteholder” and “holder of Notes” and related expressions shall
be construed accordingly). Interests in Notes which are represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Global Certificate will be transferable only in accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of the Relevant Clearing System.

 The Issuer will issue Notes in the Specified Denomination(s) set forth in the applicable Final Terms. However, the minimum
denomination permitted for each Note will be such denomination as may be allowed or required by the relevant central bank (or equivalent body) or any laws or regulations applicable to the Specified Currency. The minimum denomination of each Note
admitted to trading on a European Economic Area exchange and/or offered to the public within the European Economic Area in circumstances which require the publication of a prospectus under the Prospectus Directive (Directive 2003/71/EC) will be
€1,000 (or the equivalent amount in another currency). 
 Unless permitted by then current laws and regulations, any Notes
(including Notes denominated in Sterling) for which the proceeds are to be accepted by the Issuer in the United Kingdom and which have a maturity of less than one year from their date of issue, shall (1) be issued to a limited class of
professional investors, (2) have a redemption value of not less than £100,000 (or an amount of equivalent value denominated wholly or partly in a currency other than Sterling), and (3) provide that no part of any such Notes may be
transferred unless the redemption value of that part is not less than £100,000 (or an equivalent amount in other currencies). 
  

	2.	Exchange and Transfers of Notes 

  

	(a)	Exchange of Notes 

Registered Notes may not be exchanged for Bearer Notes, and Bearer Notes may not be exchanged for Registered Notes. Bearer Notes of one
Specified Denomination may not be exchanged for Bearer Notes of another Specified Denomination. 
  

 Schedule 6-1-5 

	(b)	Transfer of Registered Notes 

Registered Notes may be transferred upon the surrender (at the specified office of the Registrar or any Transfer Agent) of the Registered
Certificate representing such Registered Notes to be transferred, together with the form of transfer endorsed on such Registered Certificate duly completed and executed by the person shown on the Register and such other evidence as the Registrar or
Transfer Agent may reasonably require. In the case of a transfer of part only of a holding of Registered Notes represented by one Registered Certificate, a new Registered Certificate shall be issued to the transferee (following the transferee’s
surrender of any existing Registered Certificate in respect of Notes of that Series) in respect of the part transferred and a further new Registered Certificate in respect of the balance of the holding not transferred shall be issued to the
transferor. 
  

	(c)	Exercise of Options or Partial Redemption in Respect of Registered Notes 

In the case of an exercise of an Issuer’s or Noteholder’s option in respect of, or a partial redemption of, a holding of
Registered Notes represented by a single Registered Certificate, a new Registered Certificate shall be issued to the Noteholder to reflect the exercise of such option or in respect of the balance of the holding not redeemed. In the case of a partial
exercise of an option resulting in Registered Notes of the same holding having different terms, separate Registered Certificates shall be issued in respect of those Notes of that holding that have the same terms. New Registered Certificates shall
only be issued against surrender of the existing certificates to the Registrar or any Transfer Agent. In the case of a transfer of Registered Notes to a person who is already a holder of Registered Notes, a new Registered Certificate representing
the enlarged holding shall only be issued against surrender of the Registered Certificate representing the existing holding. 
  

	(d)	Delivery of New Certificates 

Each Registered Certificate to be issued pursuant to Condition 2(b) or (c) shall be available for delivery within three business days
after receipt of the request for exchange, form of transfer or Put Notice (as defined herein) or surrender of the Registered Certificate for exchange, as applicable. Delivery of the new Registered Certificate shall be made at the specified office of
the Transfer Agent or of the Registrar (as the case may be) to whom delivery or surrender of such request for exchange, form of transfer, Put Notice or Registered Certificate shall have been made or, at the option of the Noteholder making such
delivery or surrender as aforesaid and as specified in the relevant request for exchange, form of transfer, Put Notice or otherwise in writing, be mailed by uninsured mail at the risk of the Noteholder entitled to the new Registered Certificate to
such address as may be so specified, unless such Noteholder requests otherwise and pays in advance to the Transfer Agent or Registrar the costs of such other method of delivery and/or such insurance as it may specify. In this Condition 2(d),
“business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks are open for business in the location of the specified office of the Registrar or the relevant Transfer Agent (as the case may be). 

 

	(e)	Exchange Free of Charge 

Exchange and transfer of Registered Notes on registration, transfer, partial redemption, or exercise of an option shall be effected
without charge by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Registrar, or the Transfer Agent, but upon payment by the Noteholder of any tax or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation to it (or the giving of such indemnity as the Registrar
or the relevant Transfer Agent may require). 
  

	(f)	Closed Periods 

 No
Noteholder may require the transfer of a Registered Note to be registered (i) during the period commencing on the Record Date and ending on the due date for redemption of, or payment of any installment amount, or amount of interest, in respect
of, that Note, (ii) during the period commencing on the Record Date and ending on the date on which Notes may be called for redemption by the Issuer at its option pursuant to Condition 6(d), (iii) after any such Note has been called for
redemption, (iv) during the period commencing on the Record Date and ending on the date fixed for any meeting of Noteholders, or any adjourned meeting of Noteholders, or (v) during the period of seven calendar days ending on (and
including) any Record Date. 
 “Record Date” means (i) in respect of any Registered Note in definitive
form, the close of business (London time) on the 15th calendar day and (ii) in respect of any Registered Notes 

 

 Schedule 6-1-6 

 
represented by a Registered Global Certificate, the close of business on the Relevant Clearing System Business Day, in each case, prior to the applicable due date for redemption of a Registered
Note, or the payment of any installment amount or amount of interest in respect of a Registered Note, or the date fixed for any meeting, or adjourned meeting of holders of Registered Notes, where “Relevant Clearing System Business Day”
means a day on which the Relevant Clearing System is open for business. 
  

	3.	Status of the Senior Notes and the Subordinated Notes 

The Notes may be issued in one or more Series as unsecured debt securities, which may be either senior notes (“Senior
Notes”) or subordinated notes (“Subordinated Notes”). The Notes are not deposits and are not insured by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). 

Under the Program, there is no limitation on the Issuer’s ability to issue additional Senior Indebtedness (as defined below) or
Subordinated Notes. 
  

	(a)	Status of Senior Notes 

The Senior Notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and will rank equally with all other unsubordinated and
unsecured indebtedness of the Issuer. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured and subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Issuer. 

“Senior Indebtedness” is defined as any indebtedness for money borrowed (including all indebtedness of the Issuer for
borrowed and purchased money of the Issuer, all obligations arising from off-balance sheet guarantees by the Issuer and direct credit substitutes and obligations of the Issuer associated with derivative products such as interest and foreign exchange
rate contracts and commodity contracts) that is outstanding on the date of execution of the Agency Agreement, or is thereafter created, incurred, or assumed, for which the Issuer is at the time of determination responsible or liable as obligor,
guarantor, or otherwise for payment, and all deferrals, renewals, extensions, and refundings of any such indebtedness or obligations, other than the Subordinated Notes or any other indebtedness as to which the instrument creating or evidencing the
same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding, provides that such indebtedness is subordinate in right of payment to any other indebtedness of the Issuer. 
  

	(b)	Status of Subordinated Notes 

The indebtedness evidenced by the Subordinated Notes and any Coupons and Receipts appertaining thereto, subject to the extent set forth
herein, shall be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the Issuer’s Senior Indebtedness. Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and shall be entitled to the benefits of such subordination
irrespective of any amendment, modification, or waiver of any term of the Senior Indebtedness. There is no right of acceleration in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the Subordinated Notes or in the performance of any other
obligation of the Issuer under the Subordinated Notes. 
 The Issuer shall not make any payment on account of principal of,
premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on, or deliveries in respect of, its Subordinated Notes or purchase any of its Subordinated Notes, either directly or indirectly, if (1) any default or Event of Default with respect to any
of its Senior Indebtedness shall have occurred and be continuing and (2) it shall have received written notice thereof from the holders of at least 10.00 per cent. in principal amount of any kind or category of any of its Senior
Indebtedness (or the representative or representatives of such holders). 
 Until all of the Issuer’s Senior Indebtedness
is paid in full, the holders of the Subordinated Notes will be subrogated (equally and ratably with the holders of all of the Issuer’s indebtedness which, by its express terms, ranks equally with its Subordinated Notes, and is entitled to like
rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of the Issuer’s Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of its assets. 

If the Issuer repays any of its Subordinated Notes before the required date or in connection with a distribution of its assets to
creditors pursuant to a dissolution, winding up, liquidation, or reorganization, any principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable or deliveries due will be paid or delivered to the holders of the Issuer’s Senior
Indebtedness before any holders of its Subordinated Notes are paid. In addition, if such amounts were previously paid to the holders of the 

 

 Schedule 6-1-7 

 
Subordinated Notes, the holders of its Senior Indebtedness shall have first rights to such amounts previously paid. 

No modification or amendment of the subordination provisions of Subordinated Notes and any related coupons in a manner adverse to the
holders of Senior Indebtedness may be made without the consent of the holders of all of the Issuer’s outstanding Senior Indebtedness. 
  

	4.	Interest 

  

	(a)	Interest on Fixed-Rate Notes 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Fixed-Rate Note bears interest on its outstanding nominal amount (or if it
is a Partly Paid Note, on the amount paid-up) at the rate or rates per annum specified in the applicable Final Terms from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date to (but excluding) the Maturity Date. Interest will be payable in arrear on the
date or dates in each year specified in the applicable Final Terms (each, a “Fixed Interest Payment Date”) and on the Maturity Date if it does not fall on a Fixed Interest Payment Date. The first interest payment will, subject to
Condition 6 and Condition 10, be made on the first Fixed Interest Payment Date following the Interest Commencement Date. 
 If
any Fixed Interest Payment Date is not a Payment Business Day (as defined in Condition 5(e)), then payment on a Fixed-Rate Note shall be paid as provided in Condition 5(e). 

If a “Fixed Coupon Amount” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the amount of interest payable on each Fixed
Interest Payment Date in respect of the Fixed Interest Period (as defined below) ending on (but excluding) such date will be the Fixed Coupon Amount as specified irrespective of any calculation based on the Rates of Interest (as defined in Condition
4(f)) and any applicable Fixed Day Count Fraction (as defined below) (if any) and if the amount of interest payable on any Fixed Interest Payment Date is specified as an amount other than the Fixed Coupon Amount, such amount will be a
“Broken Amount” specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
 As used in these Conditions, “Fixed
Interest Period” means the period from, and including, the most recent Fixed Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Issue Date or, if different from the Issue Date, the Interest Commencement Date) to, but excluding, the next (or first)
Fixed Interest Payment Date, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
 Unless otherwise specified in the
applicable Final Terms, if interest is required to be calculated for a period other than a Fixed Interest Period, that interest shall be calculated by applying the Rate of Interest specified in the applicable Final Terms to each Specified
Denomination, multiplying that sum by the applicable Fixed Day Count Fraction and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest Sub-unit (as defined below) of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such Sub-unit being rounded upwards or
otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. 
 “Fixed Day Count Fraction” means, in respect of
the calculation of an amount of interest in accordance with this Condition 4(a): 
  

	 	(i)	if “Actual/Actual (ICMA)” is specified in the applicable Final Terms: 

 

	 	(A)	for Notes where the Accrual Period (as defined below) is equal to or shorter than the Determination Period (as defined below) during which the Accrual Period ends, the
number of days in such Accrual Period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in such Determination Period and (2) the number of determination dates (“Determination Dates”), as specified in the applicable Final
Terms, that would occur in one calendar year assuming interest were payable in respect of the whole of that year; or 

  

	 	(B)	for Notes where the Accrual Period is longer than the Determination Period during which the Accrual Period ends, the sum of: 

 

	 	(1)	 the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the Determination Period in which the Accrual Period begins divided by the product of (x) the
number of days in such Determination Period and (y) the number of 

  

 Schedule 6-1-8 

	 	 
Determination Dates, as specified in the applicable Final Terms, that would occur in one calendar year assuming interest were payable in respect of the whole of that year; and

  

	 	(2)	the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the next Determination Period divided by the product of 

 

	 	(x)	the number of days in such Determination Period; and 

  

	 	(y)	the number of Determination Dates that would occur in one calendar year assuming interest were payable in respect of the whole of that year; and

  

	 	(ii)	if “30/360” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the number of days in the Accrual Period divided by 360, calculated on a formula basis as
follows: 

  

			
	Day Count Fraction = [360 x
(Y2
–Y1)] + [30 x
(M2 –
M1) +
(D2 –
D1)]

	 360
	  	

 Where: 

“Y1
” is the year, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the Accrual Period falls; 

“Y2
” is the year, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the Accrual
Period falls; 

“M1
” is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the Accrual Period falls; 

“M2
” is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the
Accrual Period falls; 

“D1
” is the first calendar day, expressed as a number, of the Accrual Period, unless such number would be 31, in which
case D1 will be 30; and 

“D2
” is the calendar day, expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the Accrual Period,
unless such number would be 31 and D1 is greater than 29, in
which case D2 will be 30; 

“Accrual Period” means the period from (and including) the most recent Fixed Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the
Issue Date or, if different from the Issue Date, the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the relevant Interest Payment Date. 

“Determination Period” means the period from (and including) a Determination Date (as specified in the applicable Final
Terms) to (but excluding) the next Determination Date (including, where either the Interest Commencement Date or the final Fixed Interest Payment Date is not a Determination Date, the period commencing on the first Determination Date prior to, and
ending on the first Determination Date falling after, such date). 
 “Sub-unit” means, for euro, one cent, and,
for any currency other than euro, the lowest amount of that currency that is available as legal tender in the country of that currency.

Linked Interest Notes, Fund Linked Interest Notes, Inflation Linked Interest Notes, Hybrid Interest Notes, and other Underlying Asset(s) Interest Notes 

 

	 	(i)	Interest Periods and Interest Payment Dates 

Each Floating-Rate Note, Index Linked Interest Note, Share Linked Interest Note, GDR/ADR Linked Interest Note, FX Linked Interest Note,
Commodity Linked Interest Note, Fund Linked Interest 
  

 Schedule 6-1-9 

 
Note, Inflation Linked Interest Note, Hybrid Interest Note, and any other Underlying Asset(s) Interest Note bears interest on its outstanding nominal amount (or, if it is a Partly Paid Note, on
the amount paid-up) from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date specified in the applicable Final Terms. Interest will be payable in arrear on either: 
  

	 	(A)	the Interest Payment Dates (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year specified in the applicable Final Terms; or 

 

	 	(B)	if no Interest Payment Dates are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each date (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) which falls the number of months
or other period specified in the applicable Final Terms after the preceding Interest Payment Date, or in the case of the first Interest Payment Date, after the Interest Commencement Date (the “First Interest Payment Date”).

 Interest will be payable in respect of each “Interest Period” (which expression shall mean, in
these Terms and Conditions, the period from (and including), an Interest Period End Date (or the Interest Commencement Date), to (but excluding) the next, or the first Interest Period End Date, as the case may be. 

If (i) there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which an Interest Payment Date should occur or
(ii) any Interest Payment Date (or other date specified in the applicable Final Terms to be subject to adjustment in accordance with a business day convention) falls on a day which is not a Business Day, it will be adjusted in accordance with
the business day convention (each a “Business Day Convention”) specified in the applicable Final Terms. If the Business Day Convention specified is: 
  

	 	(1)	the “Floating Rate Convention”, such Interest Payment Date (or other date) shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day. If postponement
would cause such date to fall in the next calendar month, then (A) such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day and (B) each subsequent Interest Payment Date (or other date) shall be the last Business Day in
the month which falls the number of months or other period specified as the Interest Period in the applicable Final Terms after the preceding applicable Interest Payment Date (or other date) occurred; or 

 

	 	(2)	the “Following Business Day Convention”, such Interest Payment Date (or other date) shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day; or

  

	 	(3)	the “Modified Following Business Day Convention”, such Interest Payment Date (or other date) shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business
Day, unless that date would fall in the next calendar month, in which event such Interest Payment Date (or other such date) shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day; or 

 

	 	(4)	the “Preceding Business Day Convention”, such Interest Payment Date (or other date) shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day.

 If an Interest Payment Date adjusted in accordance with the applicable Business Day Convention falls after the
last day of the Interest Period to which it relates, no additional interest or other amount shall be payable. 

“Business Day” means a day which is both: 

 

	 	(A)	a day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in
foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London and New York, New York and any additional business centers specified in the applicable Final Terms (each, an “Additional Business Center”); and 

 

 Schedule 6-1-10 

	 	(B)	either (1) for any sum payable in a Specified Currency other than euro, a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open
for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in the principal financial center(s) (the “Principal Financial Center(s)”) of the country of the relevant Specified Currency (if other than
London) or (2) for any sum payable in euro, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET2) System or any successor thereto is operating. 

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms, the Principal Financial Center of any Specified Currency for the purpose of these
Terms and Conditions shall be the relevant financial center (if any) specified for the relevant Specified Currency in Section 1.5 or Section 1.6 of the ISDA Definitions, except that the Principal Financial Centers for Australian Dollars
shall be Melbourne and Sydney, the Principal Financial Center for Canadian Dollars shall be Toronto, and the Principal Financial Center for New Zealand Dollars shall be Wellington. 

The term “ISDA Definitions” means the 2006 ISDA Definitions (as published by ISDA) and as amended, updated, or replaced
as at the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes of the relevant Series. 
  

	 	(ii)	Rate of Interest on Floating-Rate Notes 

The Rate of Interest payable on Floating-Rate Notes will be set forth in the applicable Final Terms. 

 

	 	(A)	ISDA Determination for Floating-Rate Notes 

Where ISDA Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, the
Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will be the relevant ISDA Rate plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms) the margin (the “Margin”), if any. For purposes of this sub-paragraph (A), the “ISDA
Rate” for an Interest Period means a rate determined by the Principal Agent or such other person specified in the applicable Final Terms that is equal to the Floating Rate under an interest rate swap transaction if the Principal Agent or
such other person were acting as Calculation Agent for that swap transaction under the terms of an agreement incorporating the ISDA Definitions and under which: 
  

	 	(1)	the Floating Rate Option is as specified in the applicable Final Terms; 

  

	 	(2)	the relevant Interest Commencement Date is the Effective Date; 

  

	 	(3)	the Designated Maturity is a period specified in the applicable Final Terms; 

 

	 	(4)	the relevant Reset Date is either (i) the first day of that Interest Period, if the applicable Floating Rate Option is based on the London interbank offered rate
(“LIBOR”) or the Euro-Zone interbank offered rate (“EURIBOR”) for a currency, or (ii) in any other case, as specified in the applicable Final Terms; and 

 

	 	(5)	all other terms are as specified in the applicable Final Terms. 

For purposes of this sub-paragraph (A), “Euro-Zone” has the meaning set forth below and “Floating Rate”,
“Calculation Agent”, “Floating Rate Option”, “Effective Date”, “Designated Maturity”, and “Reset Date” have the meanings given to those terms in the ISDA
Definitions. 
  

 Schedule 6-1-11 

	 	(B)	Screen Rate Determination 

Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be
determined, the Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will be, subject as provided below, either: 
  

	 	(1)	the offered quotation (if there is only one quotation on the relevant screen page (the “Relevant Screen Page”)), whatever its designation; or

  

	 	(2)	the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the offered quotations, (expressed as a percentage rate
per annum) for the rate (the “Reference Rate”) by reference to the Rate of Interest which appears or appear, as the case may be, on the Relevant Screen Page on which the Reference Rate is for the time being displayed on the Reuter
Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other service as is specified in the applicable Final Terms) at 11:00 a.m. (London time in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time in the case of EURIBOR) on the dates on which the Rate of Interest is to be
determined (each, an “Interest Determination Date”) plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms) the Margin, if any, all as determined by the Calculation Agent. If five or more such offered quotations are available on
the Relevant Screen Page, the highest (or, if there is more than one such highest quotation, only one of such quotations) and the lowest (or, if there is more than one such lowest quotation, only one of such quotations) shall be disregarded by the
Calculation Agent for purposes of determining the arithmetic mean of such offered quotations. 

 If the Relevant
Screen Page is not available or if, in the case of (1) above, no such offered quotation appears or, in the case of (2) above, fewer than two such offered quotations appear, in each case at the time specified in the preceding paragraph, the
Calculation Agent, at its sole discretion, shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks (as defined herein) to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation (expressed as a percentage rate per annum) for
deposits in the Specified Currency for the relevant Interest Period to leading banks in the London interbank market in the case of LIBOR or leading banks in the Euro-Zone interbank market in the case of EURIBOR, at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London
time in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time in the case of EURIBOR) on the Interest Determination Date in question. If two or more of the Reference Banks provide the Calculation Agent with such offered quotations, the Rate of Interest for such
Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of such offered quotations plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin, if any, all as determined by the Calculation
Agent. 
 If on any Interest Determination Date only one or none of the Reference Banks provides the Calculation Agent with such
offered quotations as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which the Calculation Agent determines to be the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of the rates,
as communicated to (and at the request of) the Calculation Agent by any two or more of the Reference Banks, at which such banks were offered, at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time in the case of EURIBOR) on
the relevant Interest Determination Date, deposits in the Specified Currency for the relevant Interest Period by leading banks in the London interbank market in the case of LIBOR, or leading banks in the Euro-Zone interbank market in the case of
EURIBOR, plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin, if any. If fewer than two of the Reference Banks provide the Calculation Agent with such offered quotations, the Rate of Interest shall be the offered quotation for deposits in the Specified
Currency for the relevant Interest Period, or the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of the offered quotations for deposits in the Specified Currency for the relevant Interest Period, at which, at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time in
the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time in the case of EURIBOR) on the relevant Interest Determination Date, any one or more banks informs the Calculation Agent it is quoting to leading banks in the London interbank market in the case of LIBOR or
leading banks in the Euro-Zone interbank market in the case of EURIBOR, plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin, if any, provided that if the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the
Rate of Interest shall be determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date (though substituting, where a different Margin is to be 

 

 Schedule 6-1-12 

 
applied to the relevant Interest Period from that which applied to the last preceding Interest Period, the Margin relating to the relevant Interest Period, in place of the Margin relating to that
last preceding Interest Period). 
 “Reference Banks” means, in the case of (1) above, those banks whose
offered rates were used to determine such quotation when such quotation last appeared on the Relevant Screen Page and in the case of (2) above, those banks whose offered quotations last appeared on the Relevant Screen Page when no fewer than
three such offered quotations appeared. 
 “EC Treaty” means the Treaty establishing the European Community, as
amended by the Treaty on European Union, as amended by the Treaty of Amsterdam. 
 “Euro-Zone” means the region
comprised of member states of the European Union that have adopted the euro as the single currency in accordance with the EC Treaty. 

If the Reference Rate from time to time for Floating-Rate Notes is specified in the applicable Final Terms as being other than LIBOR or
EURIBOR, the Rate of Interest in respect of such Notes will be determined as provided in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

	 	(iii)	Rate of Interest and/or Interest Amount for Index Linked Interest Notes, Share Linked Interest Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Interest Notes, FX Linked Interest Notes,
Commodity Linked Interest Notes, Fund Linked Interest Notes, Inflation Linked Interest Notes, Hybrid Interest Notes, and Notes with Interest Linked to other Underlying Asset(s) Interest Notes 

The Rate of Interest in respect of Index Linked Interest Notes, Share Linked Interest Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Interest Notes, FX Linked
Interest Notes, Commodity Linked Interest Notes, Fund Linked Interest Notes, Inflation Linked Interest Notes, Hybrid Interest Notes, or other Underlying Asset(s) Interest Notes for each Interest Period and/or the Interest Amount payable on each
Interest Payment Date shall be determined by the Calculation Agent in the manner set out in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

	 	(iv)	Determination of Rate of Interest and Calculation of Interest Amounts for Floating-Rate Notes 

The Calculation Agent, at or as soon as practicable after each time at which the Rate of Interest payable on Floating-Rate Notes is to be
determined, will determine the Rate of Interest (subject to any specified Minimum Interest Rate (as defined herein) or Maximum Interest Rate (as defined herein)) and calculate the amount of interest (the “Interest Amount”) payable
on the Floating-Rate Notes for the relevant Interest Period. Each Interest Amount shall be calculated (unless a formula for calculation of the Interest Amount is specified in the applicable Final Terms, in which case the Interest Amount shall be
calculated in accordance with such formula) by applying the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period to the minimum Specified Denomination), multiplying such sum by the applicable Floating Day Count Fraction (as defined herein) and rounding the
resulting figure to the nearest U.S. Cent (or its approximate equivalent in the relevant Specified Currency), with $.005 (or its approximate equivalent in the relevant Specified Currency) being rounded upwards. The Calculation Agent’s
determination of the Rate of Interest and calculation of each Interest Amount shall be conclusive and binding on all parties in the absence of manifest error. 

“Floating Day Count Fraction” shall have the meaning ascribed to “Day Count Fraction” in the ISDA
Definitions or as agreed upon between the Issuer and Dealers in the applicable Final Terms; provided, however, if “Actual/365 (Sterling)” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the Floating Day Count Fraction shall be the
actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 365 or, in the case of an Interest Payment Date falling in a leap year, 366. 
  

	 	(v)	Notification of Rate of Interest and Interest Amount 

The Calculation Agent will notify the Issuer and any stock exchange on which the Notes (other than Fixed-Rate Notes, Zero Coupon Notes,
and non-interest bearing Notes) are listed (if the rules of such stock exchange so require) of the Rate of Interest and each Interest Amount for each Interest Period, the relevant Interest Payment Date

  

 Schedule 6-1-13 

 
and any other item or amount determined or calculated by it in accordance with the applicable Final Terms as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant determination or calculation. The
Calculation Agent also shall publish such notice in accordance with Condition 14 as soon as possible after any determination, but in no event later than the fourth London Business Day thereafter. In connection with any such Notes listed on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange, the Calculation Agent will notify the exchange of the Rate of Interest, the Interest Period, and each Interest Amount no later than the first day of the commencement of each new Interest Period. Both the Interest Amount
and Interest Payment Dates subsequently may be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period in accordance with the provisions hereof. Each stock
exchange on which such Notes are listed will be notified promptly of any amendment in accordance with Condition 14. For purposes of this sub-paragraph (v), the expression “London Business Day” means a day (other than a Saturday or a
Sunday) on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments in London. 
  

	 	(vi)	Certificates to Be Final 

All certificates, communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations, and decisions given, expressed, made, or obtained
for the purposes of the provisions of this Condition 4(b), by the Calculation Agent shall (in the absence of willful default, bad faith, or manifest error) be binding on the Issuer, the Calculation Agent, the other Paying Agents, and all
Noteholders, Receiptholders, and Couponholders and (in the absence of the aforesaid) the Calculation Agent shall not be liable to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Receiptholders, or the Couponholders in connection with the exercise by it of its
powers, duties, and discretions pursuant to such provisions. 
  

	(c)	Zero Coupon Notes 

If a Zero Coupon Note becomes due and repayable prior to the Maturity Date and is not paid when due, the amount due and repayable shall be
the Amortized Face Amount (as defined in Condition 6(f)) of such Note as determined in accordance with Condition 6(f)(iii). From the Maturity Date, any overdue principal of such Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the accrual
yield, if any, in respect of such Notes (the “Accrual Yield”) (expressed as a percentage per annum) set forth in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

	(d)	Partly Paid Notes 

For Partly Paid Notes (other than Partly Paid Notes which are Zero Coupon Notes and Partly Paid Notes that do not bear interest), interest
will accrue on the paid-up principal amount of such Notes, and otherwise as specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

	(e)	Accrual of Interest 

Each Note (or in the case of the redemption of only part of a Note, only that part of such Note) will cease to bear interest, if any, from
the date for its redemption unless, upon due presentation, payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused. In such event, interest will continue to accrue, before or after judgment, until the earlier of: 

 

	 	(i)	the date on which all amounts due in respect of such Note have been paid; or 

 

	 	(ii)	five calendar days after the date on which the Principal Agent has received the full amount of the monies payable and notice to that effect has been given in accordance
with Condition 14 or individually. 

  

	(f)	Rate of Interest 

As used in these Conditions, “Rate of Interest” means the rate, or each rate, of interest in respect of each interest
bearing Note determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Condition 4 or as specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

 Schedule 6-1-14 

	(g)	Limitations on Interest 

The applicable Final Terms may specify a minimum rate at which the Notes bear interest (a “Minimum Interest Rate”). If
the Rate of Interest determined in accordance with the provisions of this Condition 4 is less than the specified Minimum Interest Rate, the Rate of Interest shall be such Minimum Interest Rate. Subject to the provisions of the next paragraph, the
applicable Final Terms may specify a Maximum Interest Rate. If the Rate of Interest determined in accordance with the provisions of this Condition 4 is greater than the maximum rate at which the Notes bear interest (the “Maximum Interest
Rate”), the Rate of Interest shall be such Maximum Interest Rate. 
 In addition to any Maximum Interest Rate which may
be applicable to any Note pursuant to the above provision, the interest rate on such Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. Under
present New York law, the maximum rate of interest is 25.00 per cent. per annum on a simple interest basis, with certain exceptions. The limit may not apply to Notes in which $2,500,000 or more has been invested. 

 

	5.	Payments 

 For the
purposes of this Condition 5, references to payment or repayment (as the case may be) of principal and/or interest and other similar expressions shall, where the context so requires, be deemed also to refer to delivery of any Entitlement.

  

	(a)	Bearer Notes 

Payments of principal and interest in respect of Bearer Notes shall be made against presentation and surrender of the relevant Receipts
(in the case of payments of Installment Amounts other than on the due date for redemption and provided that the Receipt is presented for payment together with its related Note), Notes or Coupons, as the case may be, at the specified office of any
Paying Agent outside the United States and its possessions by a check payable in the currency in which such payment is due drawn on a bank in the Principal Financial Center for that currency, and at the option of the bearer of such Receipt, Note, or
Coupon, shall be mailed or delivered to an address outside the United States and its possessions furnished by such bearer or, at the option of such bearer, subject to any applicable laws and regulations, shall be transferred to an account
denominated in that currency with a bank in the Principal Financial Center for that currency; provided, however, that any payments made by transfer will be made in immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located
outside the United States and its possessions, provided, however that: 
  

	 	(i)	payments in a Specified Currency (other than euro) will be made by transfer to an account in the relevant Specified Currency maintained by the payee with, or by a check
in such Specified Currency drawn on, a bank in the Principal Financial Center of the country of such Specified Currency; provided, however, that a check may not be delivered to an address in, and an amount may not be transferred to an account at a
bank located in, the United States or any of its possessions by any office or agency of the Issuer, the Principal Agent, or any Paying Agent; and 

  

	 	(ii)	payments in euro will be made by credit or transfer to a euro account (or any other account to which euro may be credited or transferred) specified by the payee;
provided, however, that a credit or transfer may not be delivered to an address in, and an amount may not be transferred to an account at a bank located in the United States or any of its possessions by any office or agency of the Issuer, the
Principal Agent, or any Paying Agent. 

  

	(b)	Registered Notes 

  

	 	(i)	Payments of principal (which for the purposes of this Condition 5(b) shall include final Installment Amounts but not other Installment Amounts) in respect of Registered
Notes shall be made to the person shown on the Register on the Record Date against presentation and surrender of the relevant Registered Certificates at the specified office of any of the Transfer Agents or of the Registrar and in the manner
provided in Condition 5(b)(ii) below. 

  

 Schedule 6-1-15 

	 	(ii)	Payments of interest and Installment Amounts (other than the final Installment Amount) on Registered Notes shall be paid to the person shown on the Register on the
Record Date. Payments in respect of each Registered Note shall be made in the relevant Specified Currency by check drawn on a bank in the Principal Financial Center of the country of such Specified Currency and mailed to the Noteholder (or the first
named of joint holders) of such Note at its address appearing in the Register. Upon application by the Noteholder to the specified office of the Registrar or Transfer Agent before the Record Date and subject as provided in Condition 5(a) above, such
payment may be made by transfer to an account in the Specified Currency maintained by the payee with a bank in the Principal Financial Center of the country of such Specified Currency. 

Payments will be subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto in the place of payment, but without
prejudice to the provisions of Condition 8. 
  

	(c)	Payments in the United States 

Notwithstanding Condition 5(a), U.S. Dollar payments of principal and interest in respect of Bearer Notes will be made at the
specified office of a Paying Agent in the United States or its possessions if: 
  

	 	(i)	the Issuer has appointed Paying Agents with specified offices outside the United States and its possessions with the reasonable expectation that such Paying Agents will
be able to make payment of the full amount of principal, interest, or any other amounts payable on the Bearer Notes in the manner provided above when due in U.S. Dollars at such specified offices; and 

 

	 	(ii)	payment of the full amount of such principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable, at all such specified offices outside the United States and its
possessions is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the full payment or receipt of principal and interest in U.S. Dollars; and 

 

	 	(iii)	such payment is then permitted under United States law without involving, in the opinion of the Issuer, adverse tax consequences for the Issuer.

  

	(d)	Unmatured Coupons and Receipts and unexchanged Talons 

In the case of Fixed-Rate Notes, Bearer Notes should be presented for payment together with all related unmatured Coupons (which
expression shall for this purpose include Coupons to be issued upon exchange of matured Talons). Failure to present the above will result in the amount of any missing unmatured Coupon (or, in the case of payment not being made in full, the same
proportion of the amount of such missing unmatured Coupon as the sum so paid bears to the sum due) being deducted from the sum due for payment. Each amount of principal so deducted will be paid as described above against surrender of the relative
missing Coupon at any time before the expiration of five years after the Relevant Date (as defined in Condition 9) in respect of such principal (whether or not such Coupon would otherwise have become void under Condition 9) or, if later, five years
from the date on which such Coupon would otherwise have become due. Upon any Bearer Note becoming due and payable prior to its Maturity Date, all relevant unmatured Talons, if any, will become void and no further Coupons will be issued in respect of
that Bearer Note. 
 In the case of Floating-Rate Notes, upon any Bearer Note becoming due and payable prior to its Maturity
Date, any related unmatured Coupons (whether or not attached), shall become void and no payment or, as the case may be, exchange for further Coupons, shall be made in respect of those Bearer Notes. 

Upon the date on which any Bearer Note becomes due and repayable, unmatured Receipts, if any, relating thereto (whether or not attached),
shall become void and no payment shall be made in respect thereof. Payment of the final installment will be made as provided in Condition 5(a) above against surrender of the relevant Bearer Notes. 

If the due date for redemption of any Bearer Note is not a Fixed Interest Payment Date or an Interest Payment Date, interest, if any,
accrued in respect of such Bearer Note, from (and including) the 
  

 Schedule 6-1-16 

 
preceding Fixed Interest Payment Date or Interest Payment Date or, as the case may be, the Interest Commencement Date, shall be payable only against surrender of the relevant Bearer Note.

 Except as provided in Condition 5(c), payments of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on, or
deliveries in respect of, a Bearer Global Note, will be made as specified above for Bearer Notes and otherwise as specified in the relevant Bearer Global Note outside the United States and its possessions against presentation or surrender, as the
case may be, of such Bearer Global Note, and payments on any Bearer Note will be made at the specified office of any Paying Agent outside the United States and its possessions. The Paying Agent will record on each Bearer Global Note in CGN form each
payment made against presentation or surrender of such Bearer Global Note, distinguishing between any payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable, and such record shall be prima facie evidence that the payment has
been made. 
 So long as any of the Notes are represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Global Certificate held on
behalf of the Relevant Clearing System, each person who is shown in the records of the Relevant Clearing System as the holder of a particular nominal amount of such Notes (any certificate or other document issued by the Relevant Clearing System as
to the nominal amount of Notes standing on the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, except in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Principal Agent, and any other Paying Agent as the
holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for all purposes, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on, or deliveries in respect of, the Notes, the bearer of the relevant Bearer
Global Note or, in the case of a Registered Global Note, the person or persons for the time being shown in the Register maintained by the Registrar as the Noteholder or Noteholders, shall be treated by the Issuer, the Principal Agent, and any Paying
Agent as the holder of such Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of the relevant Global Note. 
  

	(e)	Payment Business Day 

If the due date for payment of any amount in respect of any Note, Receipt, or Coupon is not a Payment Business Day, the holder of the
Notes shall not be entitled to payment of the amount due until (i) if “Following” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the next following Payment Business Day or (ii), if “Modified Following” is specified in the
applicable Final Terms, the next following Payment Business Day unless that Payment Business Day falls in the next calendar month, in which case the first preceding Payment Business Day. The holder of the Notes shall not be entitled to further
interest or other payment in respect of such delay or amendment. For these purposes, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, “Payment Business Day” means any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which
commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchanges and foreign currency deposits) in: 

 

	 	(i)	the relevant place of presentation; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Principal Financial Center of the country of the relevant Specified Currency (or in the case of an amount payable in euro, a day on which the TARGET2 System or any
successor thereto is operating); and 

  

	 	(iii)	any additional financial center (“Additional Financial Center”) specified in the applicable Final Terms. 

 

	(f)	Interpretation of Principal 

Any reference in these Terms and Conditions to principal in respect of the Notes shall be deemed to include, as applicable: 

 

	 	(i)	any Additional Amounts (as defined in Condition 8) which may be payable with respect to principal under Condition 8; 

 

	 	(ii)	the Final Redemption Amount (as defined in Condition 6(a)) of the Notes; 

  

	 	(iii)	any Entitlement, Disruption Cash Settlement Price, or Failure to Deliver Settlement Price (as defined in Physical Delivery Condition 5) in respect of the Notes;

  

 Schedule 6-1-17 

	 	(iv)	the redemption amount (the “Early Redemption Amount”) of the Notes payable on redemption for taxation reasons or following an Event of Default and the
method, if any, of calculating the same if required to be specified by, or if different from that set out in, Condition 6(f); 

  

	 	(v)	the redemption amount payable on the occurrence of a Settlement Disruption Event or Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity (each as defined in the Physical Delivery
Conditions); 

  

	 	(vi)	each redemption amount (the “Optional Redemption Amount”), if any, of the Notes; 

 

	 	(vii)	for Installment Notes, the amount (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of each Note) of such installment (each, an “Installment Amount”);

  

	 	(viii)	for Amortizing Notes, the amount of unpaid principal; 

  

	 	(ix)	for Zero Coupon Notes, the Amortized Face Amount; and 

  

	 	(x)	any premium and any other amounts which may be payable by the Issuer under or for the Notes. 

Any reference in these Terms and Conditions to interest on the Notes shall be deemed to include, as applicable, any Additional Amounts
which may be payable in connection with interest under Condition 8. 
  

	(g)	Imposition of Exchange Controls 

If the Issuer, after consulting with the Principal Agent, reasonably determines that a payment on the Notes, Receipts, or Coupons cannot
be made in the Specified Currency due to restrictions imposed by the government of such currency or any agency or instrumentality thereof or any monetary authority in such country (other than as contemplated in the preceding Condition 5(a)), such
payment will be made outside the United States and its possessions in U.S. dollars by a check drawn on or by credit or transfer to an account maintained by the holder with a bank located outside the United States and its possessions, provided that
any check shall be mailed or delivered to an address outside the United States and its possessions. The Principal Agent, on receipt of the Issuer’s written instruction and at the expense of the Issuer, shall give prompt notice to the holders of
the Notes if such determination is made. The amount of U.S. Dollars to be paid in connection with any payment shall be the amount of U.S. Dollars that could be purchased by the Agent with the amount of the relevant currency payable on the date the
payment is due, at the rate for sale in financial transactions of U.S. Dollars (for delivery in the Principal Financial Center of the Specified Currency two Business Days later) quoted by that bank at 10:00 a.m. local time in the Principal Financial
Center of the relevant currency, on the second Business Day prior to the date the payment is due. 
  

	(h)	Rounding 

 For the
purposes of any calculations required pursuant to these Conditions (unless otherwise specified elsewhere in these Conditions or in the relevant Final Terms), (x) all percentages resulting from such calculations shall be rounded, if necessary,
to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point (with halves being rounded up), (y) all figures shall be rounded to seven significant figures (with halves being rounded up) and (z) all currency amounts that fall due and payable
shall be rounded to the nearest sub-unit of such currency (with halves being rounded up), except in the case of Japanese yen, which shall be rounded down to the nearest Japanese yen. 

 

	(i)	Payment Disruption 

  

	 	(i)	Occurrence of a Payment Disruption Event 

If the applicable Final Terms specifies “Payment Disruption Event” to be applicable, then, in the event that the Calculation
Agent, at any time and from time to time, determines in its sole discretion that a Payment Disruption Event has occurred or is likely to occur, then the Calculation Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the

  

 Schedule 6-1-18 

 
Noteholders of the relevant Notes of the occurrence of a Payment Disruption Event in accordance with Condition 14. 
  

	 	(ii)	Consequences of a Payment Disruption Event 

Upon the occurrence of a Payment Disruption Event: 
  

	 	(A)	Obligation to pay postponed 

The Issuer’s obligation to pay the Interest Amount, Fixed Coupon Amount, Final Redemption Amount or any such other amounts in
respect of the relevant Notes shall, subject to Condition 5(i)(ii)(D), be postponed until five Business Days (or such other date as may be determined by the Calculation Agent and notified to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14) after the
date on which the Payment Disruption Event is no longer operating. Noteholders shall not be entitled to further interest or other payment in respect of such postponement. 

 

	 	(B)	Issuer’s option to very settlement 

Notwithstanding the Issuer’s right to postpone payment in accordance with Condition 5(i)(ii)(A), the Issuer may, if practicable (and
to the extent lawful), and at the Issuer’s sole and absolute discretion: 
  

	 	(1)	make payments due to be made in the Subject Currency in the Base Currency, converted from the Subject Currency into the Base Currency at a rate reasonably selected by
the Calculation Agent; 

  

	 	(2)	make payments due to be made in the Base Currency in the Subject Currency, disregarding any obligation to convert amounts into the Base Currency;

  

	 	(3)	in the case of Share Linked Notes, deliver the Shares in lieu of cash settlement; or 

 

	 	(4)	in the case of Share Linked Notes which reference a basket of Shares, elect to satisfy in part its obligation to pay the amounts as may be due and payable under the
relevant Notes by making a partial payment(s) or partial deliveries, as the case may be (the “Partial Distributions”). Any Partial Distribution made by the Issuer to the Noteholders will be calculated and/or determined by the
Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion and shall be paid and/or delivered to the Noteholders pro rata (as far as possible, subject to any necessary adjustments for rounding) to the proportion of the Notes of the same series held by
the relevant Noteholder. In the event that any Partial Distribution is made by the Issuer, the Calculation Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make any such corresponding adjustment to any variable relevant to the redemption or payment
terms of the relevant Notes as it deems necessary and shall notify the relevant Noteholders thereof in accordance with Condition 14. 

Any payments or deliveries made in accordance with this Condition 5(i)(ii)(B) shall satisfy and discharge in full (in the case of
payments or deliveries made in accordance with paragraphs (1) to (3)) and in part (in the case of Partial Distributions made in accordance with paragraph (4)) the Issuer’s obligation to pay the Interest Amount, Fixed Coupon
Amount, Final Redemption Amount or other amount in respect of which the Payment Disruption Event has arisen, and no further amounts shall be due and payable by the Issuer in respect thereof. 

 

	 	(C)	Payments net of expenses 

Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, (a) any payments made in accordance with this Condition 5(i) shall be made after
deduction of any costs, 
  

 Schedule 6-1-19 

 
expenses or liabilities incurred or to be incurred by the Calculation Agent or Issuer in connection with or arising from the resolution of the relevant Payment Disruption Event(s) and (b) no
interest shall be paid by the Issuer in respect of any delay which may occur in the payment of any amounts due and payable under the Notes as a result of the operation of this Condition 5(i)(ii). 

 

	 	(D)	Payment Event Cut-Off Date 

In the event that a Payment Disruption Event is still occurring on the Payment Event Cut-Off Date, the Interest Payment Date, the
Maturity Date, or any other date on which redemption amounts in relation to any of the Notes shall be due and payable (as the case may be) for the relevant Notes shall fall on the Payment Event Cut-Off Date. In such circumstances, the Noteholder
will not receive any amounts. Thereafter, the Issuer shall have no obligations whatsoever under the Notes. 
 For the purposes of
this Condition 5(i): 
 “Base Currency” has the meaning given to it in Annex 4 – Additional Terms and
Conditions for FX Linked Notes; 
 “Payment Disruption Event” means: 

 

	 	(a)	the occurrence of either (a) an Inconvertibility Event and/or (b) a Non-Transferability Event (each as defined in Annex 4 – Additional Terms and
Conditions for FX Linked Notes); 

  

	 	(b)	the imposition by the Subject Currency Jurisdiction (or any political or regulatory authority thereof) of any capital controls, or the publication of any notice of an
intention to do so, which the Calculation Agent determines in good faith is likely materially to affect the Notes, and notice thereof is given by the Issuer to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14; or 

 

	 	(c)	the implementation by the Subject Currency Jurisdiction (or any political or regulatory authority thereof) or the publication of any notice of an intention to implement
any changes to the laws or regulations relating to foreign investment in the Subject Currency Jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, changes in tax laws and/or laws relating to capital markets and corporate ownership), which the Calculation
Agent determines are likely to affect materially the Issuer’s ability to hedge its obligations under the Notes; 

“Payment Event Cut-Off Date” means the date which is one year after the Maturity Date, or as determined by the
Calculation Agent acting in good faith and notified to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14; 
 “Subject
Currency” has the meaning given to it in Annex 4 – Additional Terms and Conditions for FX Linked Notes; and 

“Subject Currency Jurisdiction” has the meaning given to it in Annex 4 – Additional Terms and Conditions for FX
Linked Notes. 
  

	6.	Redemption and Purchase 

  

	(a)	At Maturity 

Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled as specified below, the Issuer will redeem each Note at an amount (the
“Final Redemption Amount” (or, in the case only of Physical Delivery Notes, by delivery of the Entitlement (as provided in the Physical Delivery Conditions))) specified in, or determined in the manner specified in the applicable
Final Terms in the relevant Specified Currency on the Maturity Date. 
  

 Schedule 6-1-20 

 For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, “Redemption Amount” shall
mean the Final Redemption Amount, Disruption Cash Settlement Price, Failure to Deliver Settlement Price, Early Redemption Amount, Optional Redemption Amount, Minimum Redemption Amount, Higher Redemption Amount (each as defined below), or any other
amount specified in the applicable Final Terms as being the amount for which the Notes are to be redeemed, as the context may require. 
  

	(b)	Redemption for Tax Reasons 

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer in whole, but not in part, at any time (in the case of Fixed-Rate Notes) or on any
Interest Payment Date (in the case of Notes other than Fixed-Rate Notes), on giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) to the Principal Agent and to the Noteholders, in accordance with
Condition 14, if: 
  

	 	(i)	on the occasion of the next payment due under the Notes, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as discussed in Condition 8 as a result of
any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of the United States 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 or amendment becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Issuer cannot avoid such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it, provided that no such redemption notice shall be given earlier than 90 calendar
days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Notes were then due. 

Prior to the publication of any redemption notice pursuant to this Condition 6(b), the Issuer shall deliver a certificate to the
Principal Agent signed by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent, if any, to the redemption have occurred. For
the purposes of this paragraph, “Authorized Officer” means, with respect to the Issuer, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer, any Senior Vice President or any Managing Director or
Director–Corporate Treasury of the Issuer or any other person who is duly authorized to act for the Issuer in matters relating to, and binding upon, the Issuer. 

Notes redeemed pursuant to this Condition 6(b) will be redeemed at their Early Redemption Amount referred to in Condition 6(f) below
together (if appropriate) with interest accrued to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption. 
  

	(c)	Special Tax Redemption 

If the Issuer determines that any payment made outside the United States by the Issuer or any of its Paying Agents in respect of any Note
(other than in respect of a Registered Note) or Coupon, under any present or future laws or regulations of the United States, would be subject to any certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement of any kind the effect of
which is the disclosure to the Issuer, any Paying Agent, or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence, or identity of a beneficial owner of such Note or Coupon who is a United States Alien (as defined herein) (other than a requirement
(1) that would not be applicable to a payment by the Issuer or any one of the Paying Agents (x) directly to the beneficial owner, or (y) to a custodian, nominee, or other agent of the beneficial owner, (2) that can be satisfied
by such custodian, nominee, or other agent certifying to the effect that the beneficial owner is a United States Alien, provided that, in any case referred to in Clauses (1)(y) or (2), payment by the custodian, nominee, or agent to the
beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement, or (3) that would not be applicable to a payment by at least one Paying Agent of the Issuer), the Issuer shall at its option either: 

 

	 	(i)	redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at any time (in the case of Fixed-Rate Notes) or on any Interest Payment Date (in the case of Notes other than Fixed-Rate
Notes), at a price equal to the Early Redemption Amount referred to in Condition 6(f) below, together with, if appropriate, interest accrued to but excluding the date fixed for redemption; or 

 

 Schedule 6-1-21 

	 	(ii)	if the conditions of the second succeeding paragraph are satisfied, pay the Additional Amounts specified in such paragraph. 

The Issuer shall make its determination as soon as practicable and publish prompt notice thereof (the “Determination
Notice”) stating the effective date of its certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement, whether the Issuer will redeem the Notes or pay the Additional Amounts specified in the next succeeding paragraph, and (if
applicable) the last date by which the redemption of the Notes must take place, as provided in the next succeeding sentence. If the Notes are to be redeemed pursuant to this Condition 6(c), that redemption shall take place on such date, not later
than one year after the publication of the Determination Notice, as the Issuer shall elect by notice to the Principal Agent at least 45 calendar days before the redemption date. Notice of such redemption of the Notes will be given to the Noteholders
not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the redemption date by publication in accordance with Condition 14. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not redeem the Notes if the Issuer shall subsequently determine not less
than 30 calendar days prior to the redemption date, that subsequent payments on the Notes and Coupons would not be subject to any such certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement, in which case the Issuer shall give
prompt notice of its subsequent determination by publication in accordance with Condition 14 and any earlier redemption notice shall be revoked and of no further effect. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and so long as the certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement referred
to in the second preceding paragraph would be fully satisfied by payment of a backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect to pay as additional interest such Additional Amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made
outside the United States following the effective date of that requirement by the Issuer or any of its Paying Agents in respect of any Note or any Coupon of which the beneficial owner is a United States Alien (but without any requirement that the
nationality, residence, or identity, other than status as a United States Alien, of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any Paying Agent, or any governmental authority), after deduction or withholding for or on account of that backup
withholding tax or similar charge (other than a backup withholding tax or similar charge that (1) would not be applicable in the circumstances referred to in the parenthetical clause of the first sentence of the second preceding paragraph or
(2) is imposed as a result of the presentation of the Note or Coupon for payment more than 15 calendar days after the date on which that payment became due and payable or on which payment thereof was duly provided for, whichever occurred
later), will not be less than the amount provided for in the Note or Coupon to be then due and payable. If the Issuer elects to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes in whole, but not
in part, at any time (in the case of Notes other than Fixed-Rate Notes) or on any Interest Payment Date (in the case of Notes other than Fixed-Rate Notes), subject to the provisions of the last two sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph.
If the Issuer elects to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to this paragraph and the condition specified in the first sentence of this paragraph should no longer be satisfied, then the Issuer shall redeem the Notes pursuant to the provisions of the
immediately preceding paragraph. 
 For purposes of this Condition 6(c), the terms “Additional Amounts” and
“United States Alien” have the meanings given in Condition 8. 
 The requirement under these Terms and
Conditions that a Noteholder submit an Asset Transfer Notice or Put Notice disclosing certain information with respect to the Noteholder and the requirement that the Noteholder and each legal or beneficial owner, as a condition to purchasing a Note,
make certain representations and agreements as to its status as a U.S. person and other matters, are not requirements as to which the provisions of this Condition 6(c) apply. In addition, in the case of Definitive Notes which are not held through a
Relevant Clearing System and in the case of Non-Principal Protected Notes, if this Condition 6(c) would otherwise apply to the Notes, the Issuer shall have the option to redeem the Definitive Notes in the manner set forth in the third preceding
paragraph, but shall not be required to redeem the Definitive Notes or pay any Additional Amounts. 
 Whenever any Additional
Amounts are to be paid on Notes or Coupons, the Issuer will give notice to the Agent, the Registrar and the other Paying Agents, as provided in the Agency Agreement. 

 

 Schedule 6-1-22 

	(d)	Call Option-Redemption at the Option of the Issuer (Issuer Call Option) 

If the applicable Final Terms specify that the Issuer has an option to redeem the Notes, and the Issuer gives: 

 

	 	(i)	not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ notice in accordance with Condition 14 to the Noteholders (or such other period as is specified in the applicable
Final Terms); and 

  

	 	(ii)	not less than seven London Business Days (as defined in Condition 4(b)(v)) (or such other period as is specified in the applicable Final Terms) before giving notice as
referred to in (i), notice to the Principal Agent; 

 (both of which notices shall be irrevocable), then the Issuer may redeem all
or a portion of the Notes then outstanding on the dates upon which redemption may occur (each, an “Optional Redemption Date”) and at the Optional Redemption Amounts specified in, or determined in the manner specified in, the
applicable Final Terms together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the relevant Optional Redemption Dates. Any redemption must be of a principal amount equal to the minimum principal amount of the Notes permitted to be
redeemed at any time (the “Minimum Redemption Amount”) or any greater principal amount of the Notes permitted to be redeemed at any time (each, a “Higher Redemption Amount”), both as indicated in the applicable
Final Terms. In the case of a partial redemption of Notes, the Notes to be redeemed (“Redeemed Notes”) will be selected individually by lot, in the case of Redeemed Notes represented by Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered
Definitive Certificates, and in accordance with the rules of the Relevant Clearing System (to be reflected in the records of the Relevant Clearing System as either a pool factor or a reduction in nominal amount, at their discretion), in the case of
Redeemed Notes represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Global Certificate, not more than 60 calendar days prior (or such other period as is specified in the applicable Final Terms) to the date fixed for redemption (the “Selection
Date”). In the case of Redeemed Notes represented by Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Certificates, a list of the serial numbers of the Redeemed Notes will be published in accordance with Condition 14 not less than 30
calendar days prior (or any other period as is specified in the applicable Final Terms) to the date fixed for redemption. The aggregate principal amount of Redeemed Notes represented by Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Certificates
shall bear the same proportion to the aggregate principal amount of all Redeemed Notes as the aggregate principal amount of Bearer Definitive Notes or Registered Definitive Certificates outstanding bears to the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes outstanding, in each case on the Selection Date, provided that the first mentioned principal amount, if necessary, shall be rounded downwards to the nearest integral multiple of the Specified Denomination, and the aggregate principal amount of
Redeemed Notes represented by a Bearer Global Note or a Registered Definitive Certificate shall be equal to the balance of the Redeemed Notes. No exchange of the relevant Bearer Global Note or a Registered Definitive Certificate will be permitted
during the period from and including the Selection Date to and including the date fixed for redemption pursuant to this Condition 6(d) and the Issuer shall give notice to that effect to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 at least 10
calendar days prior (or any other period as is specified in the applicable Final Terms) to the Selection Date. 
  

	(e)	Put Option-Redemption at the Option of the Noteholders (Investor Put Option) 

If the applicable Final Terms specify that the Noteholders have an option to redeem the Notes, upon the Noteholder giving the Issuer, in
accordance with Condition 14, not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ notice or such other period of notice as is specified in the applicable Final Terms (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Issuer, upon the expiration of such
notice, will redeem (in accordance with the terms specified in the applicable Final Terms) in whole (but not in part), such Notes on the Optional Redemption Date and at the Optional Redemption Amount specified in, or determined in the manner
specified in, the applicable Final Terms together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the Optional Redemption Date. 

To exercise such option or any other Noteholders’ option that may be set out in the applicable Final Terms, the Noteholder must
deposit (in the case of Bearer Notes) such Note (together with all unmatured Receipts and Coupons and unexchanged Talons) with any Paying Agent outside the United States, or (in the case of Registered Notes) the Registered Certificate representing
such Note(s) with the Registrar or any Transfer Agent at its specified office, during normal business hours of such Paying 
  

 Schedule 6-1-23 

 
Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent falling within the notice period, together with a duly signed and completed option exercise notice in the form obtainable from any Paying Agent, the Registrar
or any Transfer Agent (the “Put Notice”) in which the Noteholder must specify a bank account (or, if payment is by check, an address) to which payment is to be made under this Condition 6(e). 

 

	(f)	Early Redemption Amounts 

For purposes of Condition 6(b) and 6(c) above and Condition 10, the Notes will be redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount calculated as
follows, together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption or (as the case may be) the date upon which such Note becomes due and repayable prior to the Maturity Date: 

 

	 	(i)	in the case of a Note (other than a Zero Coupon Note, a Dual Currency Note, an Index Linked Redemption Note, a Share Linked Redemption Note, a GDR/ADR Linked Redemption
Note, an FX Linked Redemption Note, a Commodity Linked Redemption Note, a Fund Linked Redemption Note, an Inflation Linked Redemption Note, a Hybrid Redemption Note, or an other Underlying Asset(s) Redemption Note) with a Final Redemption Amount
equal to 100 per cent. of its outstanding principal amount at the Final Redemption Amount thereof; or 

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of a Note (other than those described in Condition 6(f)(i) above or Condition 6(f)(iii) below), the Early Redemption Amount payable (subject to Condition
6(l) if applicable) shall be the amount determined in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner by the Calculation Agent to be the fair market value of the Notes immediately prior to (and ignoring the circumstances leading to) such early
redemption, adjusted to account fully for any reasonable expenses and costs of the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying and/or related hedging and funding arrangements (including, without limitation, any equity options, equity
swaps, or other securities of any type whatsoever hedging the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes), unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms; or 

 

	 	(iii)	in the case of a Zero Coupon Note, which is not a Dual Currency Note, an Index Linked Redemption Note, a Share Linked Redemption Note, a GDR/ADR Linked Note, an FX
Linked Redemption Note, a Commodity Linked Redemption Note, a Fund Linked Redemption Note, an Inflation Linked Redemption Note, a Hybrid Redemption Note, or an other Underlying Asset(s) Redemption Note, at an amount (the “Amortized Face
Amount”) equal to: 

  

	 	(A)	the sum of (1) the Reference Price specified in the applicable Final Terms multiplied by the face amount of the Note (the “Reference Price
Amount”) and (2) the product of the Accrual Yield specified in the applicable Final Terms (compounded annually) being applied to the Reference Price Amount from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) the date fixed for
redemption or the date upon which such Note becomes due and repayable (as the case may be); or 

  

	 	(B)	if the amount payable with respect to any Zero Coupon Note upon redemption pursuant to Condition 6(b), (c), (d), or (e) above or upon its becoming due and
repayable as provided in Condition 10 is not paid or available for payment when due, the amount due and repayable with respect to such Zero Coupon Note shall be the Amortized Face Amount of such Zero Coupon Note calculated as provided above as
though the references in sub-paragraph (A) to the date fixed for redemption or the date upon which the Zero Coupon Note becomes due and repayable were replaced by references to the date (the “Reference Date”) which is the
earlier of: 

  

	 	(1)	the date on which all amounts due with respect to the Note have been paid; or 

 

	 	(2)	the date on which the full amount of the monies repayable has been received by the Agent and notice to that effect has been given in accordance with Condition 14.

  

 Schedule 6-1-24 

 The calculation of the Amortized Face Amount in accordance with this sub-paragraph
(B) will continue to be made, before, as well as, after judgment, until the Reference Date, unless the Reference Date falls on or after the Maturity Date, in which case the amount due and repayable shall be the principal amount of such Note
together with interest at a rate per annum equal to the Accrual Yield. 
 Where such calculation is to be made for a period
which is not a whole number of years, it shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 calendar days each and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days elapsed or such other calculation basis as may
be specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
 “Affiliate” means, in relation to any entity (the “First
Entity”), any entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the First Entity, any entity that controls, directly or indirectly, the First Entity or any entity directly or indirectly under common control with the First Entity. For these
purposes “control” means ownership of a majority of the voting power of an entity. 
  

	(g)	Installment Notes; Amortizing Notes 

If the Notes are Installment Notes, they will be redeemed in the Installment Amounts and on the date on which each installment is
repayable (each, an “Installment Date”) as specified in the applicable Final Terms. In the case of early redemption, the Early Redemption Amount will be determined pursuant to Condition 6(f) above. If the Notes are Amortizing Notes,
they will be redeemed in the amounts and on the dates set forth on the Amortization Table specified in the applicable Final Terms. 
  

	(h)	Partly Paid Notes 

If the Notes are Partly Paid Notes, they will be redeemed, whether at maturity, early redemption, or otherwise, in accordance with the
provisions of this Condition 6 and the applicable Final Terms. In the case of early redemption, the Early Redemption Amount will be determined pursuant to Condition 6(f) above by reference to the amount paid with respect to such Notes. 

 

	(i)	Dual Currency Notes, Index Linked Redemption Notes, Share Linked Redemption Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Redemption Notes, FX Linked Redemption Notes, Commodity Linked

If the Notes are Dual Currency Notes, Index Linked Redemption Notes, Share Linked Redemption Notes, GDR/ADR Linked Redemption Notes, FX

	(j)	Repurchases 

 The
Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates may at any time repurchase Notes (provided that, in the case of Bearer Definitive Notes, all unmatured Receipts and Coupons attached thereto are repurchased therewith) at any price in the open market or otherwise.
Such Notes may be held, reissued, resold, or surrendered to any Paying Agent for cancellation, provided that any such Notes reissued or resold comply with the selling restrictions set forth in United States Treasury Regulation Section 1.163-5
as if they were newly issued. 
  

	(k)	Cancellation 

 All
Notes which are redeemed will be cancelled (together with, in the case of Bearer Notes, all unmatured Receipts and Coupons attached thereto or surrendered therewith at the time of redemption) in the case of Bearer Notes, by surrendering each such
Note together with all unmatured Receipts and Coupons and all unexchanged Talons to any Paying Agent and, in the case of Registered Notes, by surrendering the Registered Certificate representing such Registered Notes to the Registrar and, in each
case, if so surrendered, shall, together with all Notes redeemed by the Issuer, be cancelled forthwith (together with, in the case of Bearer Notes, all unmatured Receipts and Coupons and unexchanged

  

 Schedule 6-1-25 

 
Talons attached thereto or surrendered therewith). All Notes so cancelled and the Notes purchased and cancelled pursuant to Condition 6(j) above (together with, in the case of Bearer Notes, all
unmatured Receipts and Coupons cancelled therewith) shall be forwarded to the Principal Agent and cannot be reissued or resold. 
  

	(l)	Principal Protected Notes 

In the case of all Notes which the applicable Final Terms specify to be “Principal Protected”, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, the amount of cash and fair market value of property delivered at maturity or upon early redemption will not be less than the Specified Denomination of such Note. 

 

	7.	Redenomination 

 If the
applicable Final Terms permits redenomination, Notes denominated in a currency that may be redenominated into euro, at the election of the Issuer, may be subject to redenomination in the manner set out below. In relation to such Notes, the Issuer,
without the consent of the Noteholders, Receiptholders, or Couponholders, on giving at least 30 calendar days’ prior notice to Noteholders, Receiptholders, Couponholders, the Principal Agent and the Relevant Clearing System in accordance with
Condition 14, may designate a “Redenomination Date” for the Notes, being (in the case of interest-bearing Notes) a date for payment of interest under the Notes (or in the case of Zero Coupon Notes, any date), in each case specified
by the Issuer in the notice given pursuant to this paragraph and falling on or after the date on which the relevant member state commences participation in the third stage of European Economic and Monetary Union pursuant to the EC Treaty and which
falls before the date on which the currency ceases to be a sub-division of the euro. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bearer Notes will not be redenominated at the election of the Issuer pursuant to this Condition 7 unless the Issuer receives an
opinion of United States tax counsel recognized as an expert in such matters that the Notes would be in compliance with United States Treasury Regulation Section 1. 163-5(c)(2)(i)(D) after such redenomination. 

Beginning on the Redenomination Date, notwithstanding the other provisions of the Terms and Conditions: 

 

	 	(i)	the Notes and the Receipts shall (unless already so provided by mandatory provisions of applicable law) be deemed to be redenominated in euro in the denomination of
euro 0.01 with a nominal amount for each Note and Receipt equal to the nominal amount of that Note and Receipt in the Specified Currency, converted into euro at the rate for conversion established by the Council of the European Union pursuant to the
EC Treaty (including compliance with rules relating to rounding in accordance with European Community regulations) provided that, if the Issuer determines, with the agreement of the Agent (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld), that
the then market practice in respect of the redenomination into euro 0.01 of internationally offered securities is different from the provisions specified above, such provisions shall be deemed to be amended so as to comply with such market practice
and the Issuer shall promptly notify the Noteholders, any stock exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and any Paying Agent of such deemed amendment; 

  

	 	(ii)	if Definitive Notes are required to be issued after the Redenomination Date, they shall be issued at the expense of the Issuer in the denominations of €50,000, and
such other denominations as the Principal Agent determines and gives notice of to the Noteholders; 

  

	 	(iii)	 if Bearer Definitive Notes have been issued prior to the Redenomination Date, all unmatured Receipts and Coupons denominated in the Specified Currency
(whether or not attached to the Notes) will become void from the date on which the Issuer gives the notice (the “Exchange Notice”) that replacement euro-denominated Notes, Receipts, and Coupons are available for exchange (provided
that such securities are so available) and no payments will be made in respect of them. The payment obligations contained in any Notes and Receipts so issued also will become void on that date although those Notes and Receipts will continue to
constitute valid exchange obligations of the Issuer. New certificates in respect of euro-denominated Notes, Receipts and Coupons will be 

 

 Schedule 6-1-26 

	 	 
issued in exchange for Notes, Receipts and Coupons denominated in the Specified Currency in such manner as the Principal Agent may specify and shall be stated to Noteholders in the Exchange
Notice; 

  

	 	(iv)	after the Redenomination Date, all payments in respect of the Notes (other than payments of interest in respect of periods commencing before the Redenomination Date)
will be made solely in euro, unless the Redenomination Date is on or after such date as the Specified Currency ceases to be a sub-division of the euro. Such payments will be made in euro by credit or transfer to a euro account (or any other account
to which euro may be credited or transferred) specified by the payee; 

  

	 	(v)	the amount of interest in respect of Notes will be calculated by reference to the aggregate nominal amount of Bearer Definitive Notes presented (or, as the case may be,
in respect of which Receipts or Coupons are presented) for payment by the relevant holder and the amount of such payment shall be rounded down to the nearest euro 0.01; and 

 

	 	(vi)	if the Notes are Notes other than Fixed-Rate Notes, Zero Coupon Notes or other non-interest bearing Notes, the applicable Final Terms will specify any relevant changes
to the provisions relating to interest. 

 In connection with such redenomination, the Issuer, after consultation
with the Principal Agent, may make such other changes to the Terms and Conditions applicable to the relevant Notes, including, without limitation, with respect to any Business Day, Fixed Day Count Fraction, Floating Day Count Fraction, or other
conventions as it may decide, so as to conform them to the then market practice in respect of euro-denominated debt securities issued in the Euromarkets, which are held in international clearing systems. Any such changes will not take effect until
the next following Interest Payment Date after the Noteholders have been given notice in accordance with Condition 14. 
 The
circumstances and consequences described in this Condition 7 and any resulting amendment to the Terms and Conditions of the Notes will not entitle any Noteholder (a) to any legal remedy, including, without limitation, redemption, rescission,
notice, repudiation, adjustment, or renegotiation of the Notes, or (b) to raise any defense or make any claim (including, without limitation, claims of breach, force majeure, frustration of purpose, or impracticability) or any other claim for
compensation, damages, or any other relief. 
  

	8.	Taxation 

 The Issuer will
pay a United States Alien such additional amounts of interest (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that every net payment of the principal of and interest on any Note or any Coupon appertaining thereto, after deduction or
withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed upon such holder by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any territory or
possession) upon or as a result of such payment, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Note and the coupons appertaining thereto; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to:

  

	(a)	any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge which would not have been so imposed but for: 

 

	 	(i)	the existence of any present or former connection between such holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or stockholder of, or a person holding a
power over, such holder, if such holder is an estate, trust, partnership, or corporation) and the United States or any of its possessions, including, without limitation, such holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, stockholder, or
person holding a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or business therein or being or having been present therein or having or having had a permanent
establishment therein or having or having had a qualified business unit which has the U.S. Dollar as its functional currency; 

  

	 	(ii)	 such holder’s present or former status as a personal holding company, foreign personal holding company, passive foreign investment company,
private foundation, or other 

  

 Schedule 6-1-27 

	 	 
tax-exempt entity, or controlled foreign corporation for United States tax purposes or a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; or

  

	 	(iii)	such holder’s status as a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business; 

 

	(b)	any tax, assessment, or governmental charge that would not have been so imposed but for the failure of the holder to comply with certification, identification, or
information reporting requirements under United States income tax laws, without regard to any tax treaty, with respect to the payment, concerning the nationality, residence, identity, or connection with the United States or any of its possessions of
the holder or a beneficial owner of such Note or Coupon, if such compliance is required by United States income tax laws, without regard to any tax treaty, as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment, or governmental charge;

  

	(c)	any tax, assessment, or governmental charge that would not have been so imposed but for the presentation by the holder of such Note or Coupon for payment on a date more
than 30 calendar days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; 

 

	(d)	any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise, wealth, or personal property tax or any similar tax, assessment, or governmental charge;

  

	(e)	any tax, assessment, or governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a Paying Agent from the payment of the principal of or
interest on any Note or Coupon; 

  

	(f)	any tax, assessment, or governmental charge imposed solely because the payment is to be made by a particular Paying Agent or a particular office of a Paying Agent and
would not be imposed if made by another Agent or by another office of this Agent; 

  

	(g)	any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed on interest received by a person holding, actually or constructively, 10.00 per cent. or more of the
total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Issuer entitled to vote; 

  

	(h)	any withholding or deduction imposed on a payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC (the
“Directive”) or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; 

  

	(i)	any tax, assessment, or other government charge imposed on a payment of principal or interest (or any other payment) on any Note which is (i) a Dual Currency Note
or (ii) a Non- Principal Protected Note which is an Index Linked Note, Share Linked Note, GDR/ADR Linked Note, FX Linked Note, Commodity Linked Note, Fund Linked Note, Inflation Linked Note, Hybrid Note, Physical Delivery Note, or Note linked
to other Underlying Asset(s), unless in each case the applicable Final Terms expressly provide that the Issuer will pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Note; 

 

	(j)	any tax, assessment, or other government charge imposed on a payment of principal or interest (or any other payment) on any Principal Protected Note which is an Index
Linked Note, Share Linked Note, GDR/ADR Linked Note, FX Linked Note, Commodity Linked Note, Fund Linked Note, Inflation Linked Note, Hybrid Note, Physical Delivery Note, or Note linked to other Underlying Asset(s), if in each case the applicable
Final Terms expressly provide that the Issuer will not pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Note; 

  

	(k)	any Note presented for payment by or on behalf of a Noteholder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Note to
another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union; 

  

	(l)	any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the application of Section 1471 (or any successor provision) or
Section 1472 (or any successor provision) of the Code or any related administrative regulation or pronouncement; or 

  

 Schedule 6-1-28 

	(m)	any combination of items (a) through (l), 

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or Coupon to a person other
than the sole beneficial owner of such payment or that is a partnership or fiduciary to the extent either (i) such beneficial owner, member of such partnership or beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary would not have been
entitled to the payment of Additional Amounts had such beneficial owner, member, beneficiary, or settlor been the Noteholder or Couponholder, or (ii) the Noteholder does not provide a statement, in the form, manner, and time required by
applicable United States income tax laws, from such beneficial owner, member of such partnership or beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary concerning its nationality, residence, identity, or connection with the United States.

 “United States Alien” means any corporation, partnership, entity, individual, or fiduciary that is for
United States federal income tax purposes (1) a foreign corporation, (2) a foreign partnership to the extent one or more of the members of which is, for United States federal income tax purposes, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien

any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. 

Whenever any Additional Amounts are to be paid on Notes or Coupons, the Issuer will give notice to the Principal Agent and the other
Paying Agents, as provided in the Agency Agreement. 
  

	9.	Prescription 

 The Notes,
Receipts, and Coupons will become void unless presented for payment within a period of five years after the date on which such payment first becomes due (the “Relevant Date”). However, if the full amount of the money payable has not
been duly received by the Principal Agent or other relevant Paying Agent on or prior to the Relevant Date, then the Relevant Date shall mean the date on which, after the full amount of such money has been so received, notice to that effect is duly
given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14. 
 No Coupon sheet issued upon exchange of a Talon shall include a
Coupon on which the claim for payment would be void pursuant to this Condition 9 or Condition 5(d) or any Talon which would be void pursuant to Condition 5(d). 
  

	10.	Events of Default 

  

	(a)	Events of Default in Relation to Senior Notes 

The occurrence of any of the following events with respect to any Series of Senior Notes shall constitute an “Event of
Default” with respect to such Series:

of at least 33.00 per cent. in aggregate principal amount of such Senior Notes at the time outstanding; provided, however, that in the event the Issuer within the aforesaid period of 90 calendar days shall commence legal action in a court of
competent jurisdiction seeking a determination that the Issuer had not failed duly to perform or observe the term or 

 

 Schedule 6-1-29 

	 	 
terms, covenant or covenants, or agreement or agreements specified in the aforesaid notice, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless the same continues for a period of ten calendar
days after the date of any final determination to the effect that the Issuer had failed to duly perform or observe one or more of such terms, covenants, or agreements; or 

 

	 	(iv)	a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Issuer in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, conservator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Issuer or for any substantial part of
its property or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive calendar days; or 

 

	 	(v)	the Issuer shall commence a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, reorganization, or other similar law
now or hereafter in effect, or shall consent to the entry or an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, conservator, assignee, trustee,
custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Issuer or for any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due
or shall take any corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing. 

  

	(b)	Events of Default in Relation to Subordinated Notes 

The occurrence of any of the following events with respect to any Series of Subordinated Notes shall constitute an “Event of
Default” with respect to such Series: 
  

	 	(i)	a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Issuer in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, conservator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Issuer or for any substantial part of
its property or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive calendar days; or

or shall take any corporate action in furtherance of any of the foregoing. 

  

	(c)	Acceleration of Notes, Notices, Certain Calculations, and Amounts to be Paid 

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to any Series of Notes, then the holder of any Notes of the applicable
Series, at such holder’s option, by written notice to the Issuer and the Principal Agent, may declare the principal of such Note, the interest accrued, or any other amounts then payable thereon (and Additional Amounts, if any, thereon) to be
due and payable immediately and if any such Event of Default shall continue at the time of receipt of such written notice, such amounts shall become immediately due and payable, subject to the qualification in bold-type immediately below. Upon
payment of such amount of principal, interest, or any other amounts payable (and Additional Amounts, if any), all of the Issuer’s obligations in respect of payment of principal of, interest, or any other amounts payable (and Additional Amounts,
if any) on such Note shall terminate. Interest on overdue principal, interest, or any other amounts payable (and Additional Amounts, if any) shall accrue from the date on which such principal, interest, or any other amounts payable (and Additional
Amounts, if any) were due and payable to the date such principal, interest, or 
  

 Schedule 6-1-30 

 
any other amounts payable (and Additional Amounts, if any) are paid or duly provided for, at the rate borne by the Notes (to the extent payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable).

 Payment of principal, the interest accrued, or any other amounts then payable thereon (and Additional Amounts, if any) of
the Subordinated Notes may not be accelerated in the case of a default in the payment of principal, interest, or any other amounts then payable or the performance of any other covenant of the Issuer. Payment of the principal, the interest accrued,
or any other amounts then payable thereon (and Additional Amounts, if any) of the Subordinated Notes may be accelerated only in the case of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Issuer. 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, or an event which, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, would be
an Event of Default, shall occur and be continuing, the Issuer shall notify the Principal Agent in writing of such Event of Default no later than the following Business Day after it becomes aware of such Event of Default, and the Principal Agent
thereupon promptly shall notify all of the relevant Noteholders of such Event of Default. 
 For purposes of Condition
10(a)(iii) above, any indebtedness which is in a currency other than U.S. Dollars shall be translated into U.S. Dollars at the “spot” rate for the sale of U.S. Dollars against the purchase of the Specified Currency as quoted by the
Principal Agent on the calendar day in London corresponding to the calendar day on which such premature repayment becomes due or, as the case may be, such default occurs (or, if for any reason such a rate is not available on that day, on the
earliest possible date thereafter). 
 If any Note shall become so repayable, it shall be repaid at its Early Redemption Amount
(as defined in Condition 6(f)) together, if appropriate, with accrued interest thereon, such interest to accrue and be paid in accordance with Condition 4. 
  

	11.	Replacement of Notes, Receipts, Coupons, and Talons 

Should any Note (including any Registered Certificate representing such Registered Note), Receipt, Coupon, or Talon be lost, stolen,
mutilated, defaced, or destroyed, it may be replaced at the specified office of the Principal Agent in London (or such other place outside the United States and its possessions as may be notified to Noteholders) (in the case of Bearer Notes,
Receipts, Coupons or Talons) and of the Registrar (in the case of Registered Certificates) or such other Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, as the case may be, as may from time to time be designated by the Issuer for the purpose and notice of whose
designation is given to Noteholders, upon payment by the claimant of such costs and expenses as may be incurred in connection therewith and on such terms as to evidence and indemnity as the Issuer may reasonably require. Mutilated or defaced Notes,

Lynch International Bank Limited of Dublin Road, Carrick on Shannon, Ireland shall be the Registrar and Transfer Agent. 
 The
Issuer is entitled to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent, the Registrar, or Transfer Agent and to appoint an alternative Principal Agent or other Paying Agents, Registrars, or Transfer Agents and approve any change in the
specified office through which any Paying Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent acts, provided that:

 Schedule 6-1-31 

	 	 
any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; and 

 

	(e)	there will at all times be a Transfer Agent and a Registrar with a specified office in continental Europe (outside the United Kingdom). 

In addition, the Issuer shall immediately appoint a Paying Agent having a specified office in New York City in the circumstances

notice thereof shall have been given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14. 
  

	13.	Exchange of Talons

which it appertains) a further Talon, subject to the provisions of Condition 9. Each Talon, for purposes of these Terms and Conditions, shall be deemed to mature on the Fixed Interest Payment Date or the Interest Payment Date (as the case may be) on
which the final Coupon comprised in the relative Coupon sheet matures. 
  

	14.	Notices 

 Notices to the
holders of Registered Notes shall be (i) mailed to them (or, in the case of joint holders, to the first named) at their respective addresses in the Register and (ii) save where another means of effective communication has been specified
herein or in the Final Terms, published (a) in the case of any Registered Notes which are admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s Regulated Market (so long as the rules of that exchange so require), in a leading newspaper having

have been made in all required newspapers). 
 Notices to the holders of Bearer Notes shall be, save where another means of
effective communication has been specified herein or in the Final Terms, published in a leading newspaper having general circulation in London (which is expected to be the Financial Times) or if such publication is not practicable, if

given to the holders of Bearer Notes in accordance with this Condition 14. 
 For so long as the Global Notes are held in their
entirety on behalf of the Relevant Clearing System and until such time as any Definitive Notes are issued, if any are issued, there may be substituted for such publication in such newspaper the delivery of the relevant notice to the Relevant
Clearing System for communication by them to the Noteholders and, in addition, so long as the Notes are listed on a stock exchange or are admitted to trading by another relevant authority and the rules of that stock exchange or relevant authority so
require, notices will be published in a daily newspaper of general circulation in a place or places required by those rules. Any such notice to the Relevant Clearing System shall be deemed to have been given to Noteholders on the seventh day after
the day on which that notice was given to the Relevant Clearing System. 
 Notices to be given by any Noteholder shall be in
writing and given by lodging the same, together with the related Note or Notes, with the Principal Agent. While any of the Notes are represented by a Global Note, that notice may be given by any Noteholder to the Principal Agent through the Relevant
Clearing System, in such manner as the Principal Agent and the Relevant Clearing System, may approve for this purpose. 
  

	15.	Meetings of Noteholders, Modification, and Waiver 

The Agency Agreement contains provisions for convening meetings of the Noteholders to consider any matter affecting their interests,
including approving by Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Agency Agreement), a modification of the Notes, the Receipts, the Coupons, or certain provisions of the Agency Agreement. Such a meeting may be convened by the Issuer or Noteholders
holding not less than 33.00 per cent. in principal amount of the Notes of the relevant Series that at such time remain outstanding. The quorum at any such meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution is one or more persons holding or
representing a clear majority in principal amount of the Notes of the relevant Series that at such time remain outstanding, or at any adjourned meeting one or more persons being or representing Noteholders whatever the principal amount of the Notes
so held or represented, except that at any meeting the business of which includes the modification of certain provisions of the Notes, Receipts, or Coupons (including modifying the date of maturity of the Notes or any date for payment of interest
thereon, reducing or cancelling the amount of principal or the rate of interest payable in respect of the Notes or altering the currency of payment of the Notes, Receipts, or Coupons), the necessary quorum for passing an Extraordinary Resolution

Terms and Conditions set out below (the “Index Linked Conditions”), in each case subject to completion and/or amendment in the applicable Final Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between the Terms and Conditions
of the Notes and the Index Linked Conditions, the Index Linked Conditions shall prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between (i) the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and/or the Index Linked Conditions and (ii) the Final Terms, the
Final Terms shall prevail. 
  

	1.	Definitions 

 For the
purposes of these Index Linked Conditions: 
 “Averaging Cut-Off Date” means the eighth Scheduled Trading Day
(or, where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, the eighth Common Scheduled Trading Day) immediately following the original
date that, but for the occurrence of another Averaging Date or Disrupted Day, or on account of such date not being a Scheduled Trading Day (or, where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that
“Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, a Common Scheduled Trading Day), would have been the final Averaging Date, or, if earlier, the Scheduled Trading Day (or, where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and
the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, the Common Scheduled Trading Day) falling on or immediately preceding the second Business Day immediately preceding the date on which payment of
any amount or delivery of any assets may have to be made pursuant to any calculation or determination made on the relevant Averaging Dates, provided that the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall not fall prior to the original date on which the final
Averaging Date was scheduled to fall. 
 “Averaging Date” means each date specified as an Averaging Date in the
applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following Scheduled Trading Day, or, if earlier, the Averaging Cut-Off Date (or, where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the
applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, each date specified as an Averaging Date in the applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Common Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately
following Common Scheduled Trading Day). If any such day is a Disrupted Day: 
  

	(a)	if “Omission” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then such date will be deemed not to be an Averaging Date for the purposes of
determining the relevant level or price provided that, if through the operation of this provision there would not be an Averaging Date, then the provisions of the definition of “Valuation Date” will apply for purposes of determining the
relevant level or price on the final Averaging Date, as if such final Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day; or 

  

	(b)	if “Postponement” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then the provisions of the definition of “Valuation Date” will apply for
the purposes of determining the relevant level, price or amount on that Averaging Date as if such Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day irrespective of whether, pursuant to such determination, that deferred Averaging Date
would fall on a day that already is or is deemed to be an Averaging Date; or 

  

	(c)	if “Modified Postponement” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms then: 

 

	 	(i)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a single Index, the Averaging Date shall be the first succeeding Valid Date. If the first succeeding Valid Date has not occurred
as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading Day for the Index, then (A) the
Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date
in accordance with sub-paragraph (a)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; 

  

 Schedule 6-2-1 

	 	(ii)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall not be
applicable, the Averaging Date for each Index not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the originally designated Averaging Date (following adjustment of such date owing to the original date not being a Scheduled Trading Day, if
applicable) (the “Scheduled Averaging Date”) and the Averaging Date for an Index affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Index. If the first succeeding Valid Date in
relation to such Index has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading
Day for the Index, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date) in relation to such Index, and (B) the Calculation Agent
shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (b)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; 

 

	 	(iii)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Individual
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Averaging Date for each Index not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the originally designated Averaging Date (following adjustment of such date owing to the original date not
being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, if applicable) (the “Scheduled Averaging Date”) and the Averaging Date for an Index affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such
Index. If the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Index has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was
scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day for the Index, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date) in relation
to such Index, and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (c)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; or 

 

	 	(iv)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Common
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Averaging Date for each Index shall be the first succeeding Common Valid Date in relation to such Index. If the first succeeding Common Valid Date has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the
Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to
be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (d)(ii)
of the definition of “Valuation Date” below, 

 and, for the purposes of these Index Linked Conditions
“Valid Date” means a Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day and on which another Averaging Date does not or is deemed not to occur, and “Common Valid Date” means a Common Scheduled Trading Day that is not
a Disrupted Day for any Index, and on which another Averaging Date does not or is deemed not to occur. 
 “Barrier Event
Determination Day” means, in respect of each Index and each Observation Period: 
  

	(a)	if the applicable Final Terms provides that “Barrier Event (intraday)” is applicable, each day on which the level of such Index is published and/or
disseminated by the Index Sponsor during such Observation Period, regardless of whether or not such day is a Scheduled Trading Day for such Index (and if the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines that a Market Disruption
Event is occurring for such Index at any time on any Barrier Event Determination Day, it shall disregard the period during which it determines in its sole and absolute discretion that such Market Disruption Event has occurred and is continuing for
the purposes of determining whether or not a Barrier Event (intraday) has occurred);

	(b)	if the applicable Final Terms provides that “Barrier Event (closing)” is applicable, each Scheduled Trading Day for such Index during such Observation Period
that is not a Disrupted Day for such Index; or

each Common Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day for any Index in the Basket of Indices. 

“Barrier Event Valuation Time (closing)” means: 

 

	(a)	in relation to an Index which is specified in the applicable Final Terms as being a Unitary Index, the Scheduled Closing Time on the relevant Exchange on the relevant
Barrier Event Determination Day, as the case may be, in relation to each Index to be valued. If the relevant Exchange closes prior to its Scheduled Closing Time and the specified Barrier Event Valuation Time (closing) is after the actual closing
time for its regular trading session, then the Barrier Event Valuation Time (closing) shall be such actual closing time; and 

  

	(b)	in relation to an Index which is specified in the applicable Final Terms as being a Multi-Exchange Index, (i) for the purposes of determining whether a Market
Disruption Event has occurred: (x) in respect of any Component Security, the Scheduled Closing Time on the relevant Exchange and (y) in respect of any options contracts or futures contracts on the Index, the close of trading on the

its regular trading session or (iii) a Market Disruption Event has occurred; and 

  

	(c)	 in relation to an Index which is specified in the applicable Final Terms as being a Proprietary Index, any Scheduled Trading Day on which a Market

specified, any Index the Calculation Agent determines as such. 
 “Related Exchange” means, in relation to any
Unitary Index or Multi-Exchange Index, each exchange or quotation system specified as such for such Index in the applicable Final Terms, any successor to such exchange or quotation system or any substitute exchange or quotation system to which
trading in futures or options contracts relating to such Index has temporarily relocated (provided that the Calculation Agent has determined that there is comparable liquidity relative to the futures or options contracts relating to such Index on
such temporary substitute exchange or quotation system as on the original Related Exchange), provided, however, that where “All Exchanges” is specified as the Related Exchange in the applicable Final Terms, “Related Exchange”
shall mean each exchange or quotation system where trading has a material effect (as determined by the Calculation Agent) on the overall market for futures or options contracts relating to the Index. 

“Scheduled Closing Time” means, in respect of an Exchange or Related Exchange and a Scheduled Trading Day, the scheduled
weekday closing time of such Exchange or Related Exchange on such Scheduled Trading Day, without regard to after hours or any other trading outside of the regular trading session hours.

futures or options contracts relating to the Index on any relevant Related Exchange; and 

  

	(b)	in respect of any Multi-Exchange Index, any suspension or limitation imposed on trading by any relevant Exchange or Related Exchange or otherwise, and whether by reason

Day, unless each of the Scheduled Trading Days immediately following the Scheduled Valuation Date up to and including the Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day. In that case, or if such Valuation Date falls on the Valuation Cut-Off Date owing to
the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading Day for the Index, (i) the Valuation Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date (notwithstanding the fact that such day

  

 Schedule 6-2-8 

	 	 
may be a Disrupted Day) and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price in the manner set out in the applicable Final Terms or, if not set out or if not
practicable, determine the relevant level or price by determining the level of the Index as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date in accordance with (subject to Index Linked Condition 4) the formula for and method of calculating the
Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date of each security comprised in the Index (or, if an event giving rise to a
Disrupted Day (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share) has occurred in respect of the relevant security on the Valuation Cut-Off Date, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time
on the Valuation Cut-Off Date); 

  

	(b)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall not be
applicable, the Valuation Date for each Index not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the Scheduled Valuation Date (or, if earlier, the Valuation Cut-Off Date) and the Valuation Date for each Index affected (each an
“Affected Index”) by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day relating to the Affected Index, unless each of the Scheduled Trading Days immediately following
the Scheduled Valuation Date up to and including the Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day relating to the Affected Index. In that case, or if such Valuation Date falls on the Valuation Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was
scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading Day for the Index, (i) the Valuation Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date for such Index (notwithstanding the fact that such day may be a Disrupted Day) and (ii) the
Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price using, in relation to such Index, the level of that Index determined in the manner set out in the applicable Final Terms or, if not set out or if not practicable, using the level of that
Index as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date in accordance with (subject to Index Linked Condition 4) the formula for and method of calculating that Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the
Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date of each security comprised in that Index (or, if an event giving rise to a Disrupted Day (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share) has
occurred in respect of the relevant security on the Valuation Cut-Off Date, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date); 

 

	(c)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Individual
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Valuation Date for each Index not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the Scheduled Valuation Date (or if the Scheduled Valuation Date is not a Common Scheduled Trading Day, the
immediately following Common Scheduled Trading Day, or in either case, if earlier, the Valuation Cut-Off Date) and the Valuation Date for each Index affected (each an “Affected Index”) by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be
the first succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day relating to the Affected Index, unless each of the Scheduled Trading Days immediately following the Scheduled Valuation Date (or if the Scheduled Valuation Date is not a Common
Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following Common Scheduled Trading Day) up to and including the Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day relating to the Affected Index. In that case, or if such Valuation Date falls on the Valuation Cut-Off
Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, (i) the Valuation Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date for such Index (notwithstanding the fact that such day may be a
Disrupted Day for an Index or not a Common Scheduled Trading Day) and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price using, in relation to such Index, the level of that Index determined in the manner set out in the
applicable Final Terms or, if not set out or if not practicable, using the level of that Index as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date in accordance with (subject to Index Linked Condition 4) the formula for and method of calculating
that Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date of each security comprised in that Index (or, if an event giving rise to a
Disrupted Day (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share) has occurred in respect of the relevant security on the Valuation Cut-Off Date, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time

 Schedule 6-2-9 

	(d)	where the Index Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Indices and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Common
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Valuation Date shall be the first succeeding Common Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day for any Index, unless each of the Common Scheduled Trading Days immediately following the Scheduled
Valuation Date up to and including the Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day for one or more Indices. In that case, or if the Valuation Date falls on the Valuation Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not
being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, (i) the Valuation Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date (notwithstanding the fact that such day may be a Disrupted Day for an Index or not a Common Scheduled Trading Day) and (ii) the
Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price using, in relation to each Index for which the Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day or is not a Common Scheduled Trading Day, the level of that Index determined in the manner set out
in the applicable Final Terms or, if not set out or if not practicable, using the level of that Index as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date in accordance with (subject to Index Linked Condition 4) the formula for and method of
calculating that Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date of each security comprised in each Index for which the
Valuation Cut-Off Date is a Disrupted Day or is not a Common Scheduled Trading Day (or, if an event giving rise to a Disrupted Day (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share) has occurred in respect of the relevant security on
the Valuation Cut-Off Date, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time on the Valuation Cut-Off Date). 

“Valuation Time” means: 
  

	(a)	in respect of any Unitary Index, (i) for the purposes of determining whether an Early Closure, an Exchange Disruption or a Trading Disruption has occurred in
respect of (I) any Exchange, the Scheduled Closing Time of the Exchange (provided that, if the relevant Exchange closes prior to its Scheduled Closing Time, then the Valuation Time shall be such actual closing time), and (II) any options
contracts or futures contracts on such Index, the close of trading on the Related Exchange, and (ii) in all other circumstances, the time at which the official closing level of the Index is calculated and published by the Index Sponsor;

  

	(b)	in respect of any Multi-Exchange Index, (i) for the purposes of determining whether an Early Closure, an Exchange Disruption or a Trading Disruption has occurred
in respect of (I) any Component Security, the Scheduled Closing Time on the Exchange in respect of such Component Security (provided that, if the relevant Exchange closes prior to its Scheduled Closing Time, then the Valuation Time shall be
such actual closing time), and (II) any options contracts or futures contracts on the Index, the close of trading on the Related Exchange, and (ii) in all other circumstances, the time at which the official closing level of the Index is
calculated and published by the Index Sponsor; and 

  

	(c)	in respect of any Proprietary Index, the time at which the Index Sponsor calculates and publishes the official closing level of the Index. 

 

	2.	Market Disruption 

“Market Disruption Event” means: 
  

	 	(a)	in respect of any Unitary Index, the occurrence or existence of (i) a Trading Disruption, (ii) an Exchange Disruption, which in either case the Calculation
Agent determines is material, at any time during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time or (iii) an Early Closure. 

For the purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event in respect of a Unitary Index exists at any time, if a Market Disruption
Event occurs in respect of a Component Security included in the Index at any time, then the relevant percentage contribution of such Component Security to the level of the Index shall be based on a comparison of (x) the portion of the level of
the Index attributable to such Component Security and (y) the overall level of the Index, in each case immediately before the occurrence of such Market Disruption Event; 

 

	 	(b)	in respect of any Multi-Exchange Index either: 

  

 Schedule 6-2-10 

					
	(i)	  	(A)	  	the occurrence or existence, in respect of any Component Security, of:

  

	 	(1)	a Trading Disruption, which the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time in respect of
the Exchange on which such Component Security is principally traded; 

  

	 	(2)	an Exchange Disruption, which the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time in respect
of the Exchange on which such Component Security is principally traded; or 

  

	 	(3)	an Early Closure; and 

  

	 	(B)	the aggregate of all Component Securities in respect of which a Trading Disruption, an Exchange Disruption or an Early Closure occurs or exists, comprises 20 per
cent. or more of the level of the Index; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the occurrence or existence, in respect of futures or options contracts relating to the Index, of (1) a Trading Disruption, (2) an Exchange Disruption which
in either case the Calculation Agent determines is material, at any time during the one hour period that ends at the Valuation Time in respect of the Related Exchange or (3) an Early Closure. 

For the purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event in respect of a Multi-Exchange Index exists at any time, if a Market
Disruption Event (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share) occurs in respect of a Component Security at that time, then the relevant percentage contribution of such Component Security, to the level of the Index shall be
based on a comparison of (x) the portion of the level of the Index attributable to that Component Security and (y) the overall level of the Index, in each case using the official opening weightings as published by the Index Sponsor as part
of the market “opening data” (as defined in the Share Linked Conditions in relation to a share). 
  

	 	(c)	in respect of any Proprietary Index, the failure by the Index Sponsor to calculate and publish the level of the Index on any Scheduled Trading Day or in respect of such
Scheduled Trading Day within the scheduled timeframe for publication. 

  

	3.	Barrier Event 

  

	(a)	A “Barrier Event (intraday)” means (and a Barrier Event (intraday) shall be deemed to occur if), in respect of an Index, the Calculation Agent
determines that the Index Level of such Index as of the Barrier Event Valuation Time (intraday) on any Barrier Event Determination Day is less than or equal to the corresponding Barrier Level for such Index and such Barrier Event Determination Day.

 For the purpose of determining whether a Barrier Event (intraday) has occurred on any day, the definition of
Market Disruption Event specified in Index Linked Condition 3 shall be amended such that (i) all references to “during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time” shall be deleted, and (ii) in the definition of
“Early Closure” appearing in Index Linked Condition 2, each reference to “Valuation Time” and “Scheduled Closing Time” shall be construed as a reference to “Barrier Event Valuation Time (intraday)”.

  

	(b)	A “Barrier Event (closing)” means (and a Barrier Event (closing) shall be deemed to occur if), in respect of an Index, the Calculation Agent determines
that the Index Closing Level of such Index as of the Barrier Event Valuation Time (closing) on any Barrier Event Determination Day is less than or equal to the corresponding Barrier Level for such Index and such Barrier Event Determination Day.

  

 Schedule 6-2-11 

	4.	Adjustments and Corrections to an Index 

  

	(a)	Successor Index Sponsor Calculates and Reports an Index 

If a relevant Index is (i) not calculated and announced by the Index Sponsor but is calculated and announced by a successor sponsor
(the “Successor Index Sponsor”) acceptable to the Calculation Agent, or (ii) replaced by a successor index using, in the determination of the Calculation Agent, the same or a substantially similar formula for and method of
calculation as used in the calculation of that Index, then in each case that index (the “Successor Index”) will be deemed to be the Index. 
  

	(b)	Modification and Cessation of Calculation of an Index 

If (i) on or prior to a Valuation Date, an Observation Date or an Averaging Date (or other relevant date, as determined by the
Calculation Agent), the relevant Index Sponsor makes or announces that it will make a material change in the formula for or the method of calculating a relevant Index or in any other way materially modifies that Index (other than a modification
prescribed in that formula or method to maintain that Index in the event of changes in constituent stock and capitalization or contracts and other routine events) (an “Index Modification”), or permanently cancels a relevant Index
and no Successor Index exists (an “Index Cancellation”), or (ii) on a Valuation Date, an Observation Date or an Averaging Date (or other relevant date, as determined by the Calculation Agent), the Index Sponsor or, if
applicable, the Successor Index Sponsor fails to calculate and announce a relevant Index, provided that, in respect of an Index which is specified in the applicable Final Terms as being a Multi-Exchange Index or a Proprietary Index, the Calculation
Agent may, in its discretion, determine that such event instead results in the occurrence of a Disrupted Day (an “Index Disruption” and, together with an Index Modification and an Index Calculation, each an “Index Adjustment
Event”), then the Issuer may take the action described in (A) or (B) below: 
  

	(A)	require the Calculation Agent to determine if such Index Adjustment Event has a material effect on the Index Linked Notes and, if so, calculate the relevant level or
price using, in lieu of a published level for that Index, the level for that Index as at the Valuation Time on that Valuation Date, Observation Date or Averaging Date, as the case may be, as determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the
formula for and method of calculating that Index last in effect prior to the change, failure or cancellation, but using only those securities that comprised that Index immediately prior to that Index Adjustment Event; or 

 

	(B)	on giving notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14, redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes, each Note being redeemed at the Early Redemption
Amount; or 

 Upon the occurrence of an Index Adjustment Event, the Issuer shall give notice as soon as reasonably
practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14, giving details of the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto, provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of such action. The
Issuer shall make copies of any such determinations available for inspection by Noteholders. 
  

	(c)	Corrections to an Index 

 If the
level of a relevant Index published on any Valuation Date, Observation Date or Averaging Date (or other relevant date, as determined by the Calculation Agent), as the case may be, by the relevant Index Sponsor or (if applicable) the relevant
Successor Index Sponsor and which is utilized for any calculation or determination made for the purposes of the Index Linked Notes (a “Relevant Calculation”) is subsequently corrected and the correction (the “Corrected Index
Level”) is published by the relevant Index Sponsor or (if applicable) the relevant Successor Index Sponsor no later than two Business Days prior to the date on which payment of any amount or delivery of any assets may have to be made
pursuant to such Relevant Calculation, then such Corrected Index Level shall be deemed to be the relevant level for such Index on such Averaging Date, Observation Date, Valuation Date (or other relevant date, as determined by the Calculation Agent),
as the case may be, and the Calculation Agent shall use such Corrected Index Level in determining the relevant level or price and/or whether the Barrier Event (closing) or Barrier Event (intraday), as the case may be, has been triggered. 

 

 Schedule 6-2-12 

	5.	Additional Disruption Events 

  

	(a)	“Additional Disruption Event” means any of Change in Law, Hedging Disruption and/or Increased Cost of Hedging, in each case if specified in the
applicable Final Terms. 

 “Change in Law” means that, on or after the Trade Date (as specified in
the applicable Final Terms) (i) due to the adoption of or any change in any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, any tax law), or (ii) due to the promulgation of or any change in the interpretation by any court,
tribunal or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction of any applicable law or regulation (including any action taken by a taxing authority), the Calculation Agent determines in its sole and absolute discretion that (A) it has become
illegal to hold, acquire or dispose of any relevant security comprised in an Index or (B) the Issuer will incur a materially increased cost in performing its obligations in relation to the Index Linked Notes (including, without limitation, due
to any increase in tax liability, decrease in tax benefit, or other adverse effect on the tax position of the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates). 

“Hedging Disruption” means that the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents is unable, after using commercially
reasonable efforts, to (i) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind or dispose of any transaction(s) or asset(s) it deems necessary to hedge the equity or other price risk of the Issuer issuing and performing its
obligations with respect to the Index Linked Notes, or (ii) realize, recover or remit the proceeds of any such transaction(s) or asset(s). 

“Increased Cost of Hedging” means that the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents acting on its behalf would incur
a materially increased (as compared with circumstances existing on the Trade Date) amount of tax, duty, expense, or fee (other than brokerage commissions) to (i) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind, or dispose of any
transaction(s) or asset(s) it deems necessary to hedge the equity or other price risk of the Issuer issuing and performing its obligations with respect to the Index Linked Notes, or (ii) realize, recover, or remit the proceeds of any such
transaction(s) or asset(s), provided that any such materially increased amount that is incurred solely due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents shall not be deemed an Increased Cost of
Hedging. 
  

	(b)	If Additional Disruption Events are specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, then if an Additional Disruption Event occurs, the Issuer in its sole and
absolute discretion may take the action described in (i) or (ii) below: 

  

	 	(i)	require the Calculation Agent to determine in its sole and absolute discretion the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any one or more of the terms of these
Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the Additional Disruption Event and determine the effective date of that adjustment; or 

 

	 	(ii)	give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified
Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount; 

  

	(c)	Upon the occurrence of an Additional Disruption Event, the Issuer shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Noteholders stating the occurrence of the Additional
Disruption Event, giving details thereof and the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of the Additional Disruption Event.

  

 Schedule 6-2-13 

 ANNEX 2 

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SHARE LINKED NOTES 

The terms and conditions applicable to Share Linked Notes shall comprise the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and the additional
Terms and Conditions set out below (the “Share Linked Conditions“), in each case subject to completion and/or amendment in the applicable Final Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between the Terms and Conditions
of the Notes and the Share Linked Conditions, the Share Linked Conditions shall prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between (i) the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and the Share Linked Conditions and (ii) the Final Terms, the
Final Terms shall prevail. 
  

	1.	Definitions 

 For the
purposes of these Share Linked Conditions: 
 “Averaging Cut-Off Date” means the eighth Scheduled Trading Day
(or, where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, the eighth Common Scheduled Trading Day) immediately following the original
date that, but for the occurrence of another Averaging Date or Disrupted Day, or on account of such date not being a Scheduled Trading Day (or, where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable Final Terms provides that
“Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, a Common Scheduled Trading Day), would have been the final Averaging Date, or, if earlier, the Scheduled Trading Day (or, where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and
the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, the Common Scheduled Trading Day) falling on or immediately preceding the second Business Day immediately preceding the date on which payment of
any amount or delivery of any assets may have to be made pursuant to any calculation or determination made on the relevant Averaging Dates, provided that the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall not fall prior to the original date on which the final
Averaging Date was scheduled to fall. 
 “Averaging Date” means each date specified as an Averaging Date in the
applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following Scheduled Trading Day, or, if earlier, the Averaging Cut-Off Date (or, where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable
Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall be applicable, each date specified as an Averaging Date in the applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Common Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following
Common Scheduled Trading Day). If any such day is a Disrupted Day: 
  

	(a)	if “Omission” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then such date will be deemed not to be an Averaging Date for the purposes of
determining the relevant price; provided that, if through the operation of this provision there would not be an Averaging Date, then the provisions of the definition of “Valuation Date” will apply for purposes of determining the relevant
level or price on the final Averaging Date, as if such final Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day; or 

  

	(b)	if “Postponement” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, then the provisions of the definition of “Valuation Date” will apply for
the purposes of determining the relevant price on that Averaging Date as if such Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day irrespective of whether, pursuant to such determination, that deferred Averaging Date would fall on a day
that already is or is deemed to be an Averaging Date; or 

  

	(c)	if “Modified Postponement” is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms then: 

 

	 	(i)	where the Share Linked Notes relate to a single Share, the Averaging Date shall be the first succeeding Valid Date. If the first succeeding Valid Date has not occurred
as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading Day for the Share, then (A) the
Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant price for that Averaging Date in
accordance with sub-paragraph (a)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; 

  

 Schedule 6-2-14 

	 	(ii)	where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” shall not be
applicable, the Averaging Date for each Share not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the originally designated Averaging Date (following adjustment of such date owing to the original date not being a Scheduled Trading Day, if
applicable) (the “Scheduled Averaging Date”) and the Averaging Date for a Share affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Share. If the first succeeding Valid Date in
relation to such Share has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Scheduled Trading
Day for such Share, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date) in relation to such Share, and (B) the Calculation Agent
shall determine the relevant price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (b)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; 

  

	 	(iii)	where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Individual
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Averaging Date for each Share not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the originally designated Averaging Date (following adjustment of such date owing to the original date not being a
Common Scheduled Trading Day, if applicable) (the “Scheduled Averaging Date”) and the Averaging Date for a Share affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Share. If
the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Share has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to
fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date) in relation to such Share, and
(B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (c)(ii) of the definition of “Valuation Date” below; or 

 

	 	(iv)	where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares and the applicable Final Terms provides that “Common Scheduled Trading Days” and “Common
Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Averaging Date for each Share shall be the first succeeding Common Valid Date in relation to such Share. If the first succeeding Common Valid Date has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the
Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to
be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph (d)(ii)
of the definition of “Valuation Date” below, 

 and, for the purposes of these Share Linked Conditions
“Valid Date” means a Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day and on which another Averaging Date does not or is deemed not to occur, and “Common Valid Date” means a Common Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted
Day for any Share and on which another Averaging Date does not or is deemed not to occur.

	 	(i)	require the Calculation Agent to determine in its sole and absolute discretion the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any terms of the Terms and Conditions
and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the De-listing, Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization or Insolvency, as the case may be, and determine the effective date of that adjustment. The Calculation Agent may (but need not) determine
the appropriate adjustment by reference to the adjustment in respect of the Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-listing, Nationalization or Insolvency made by any options exchange to options on the Shares traded on that options exchange and the relevant
adjustments may in the case of adjustments following a Merger Event or Tender Offer include, without limitation, adjustments to account for changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relevant to the Shares; or

  

	 	(ii)	give notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified
Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount; or 

  

	 	(iii)	following such adjustment to the settlement terms of options on the Shares traded on such exchange(s) or quotation system(s) as the Issuer in its sole discretion shall
select (the “Options Exchange”), require the Calculation Agent to make a corresponding adjustment to any one or more of the terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms which adjustment will be effective as of
the date determined by the Calculation Agent to be the effective date of the corresponding adjustment made by the Options Exchange. If options on the Shares are not traded on the Options Exchange, the Calculation Agent will make such adjustment, if
any, to any one or more of the terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines appropriate, with reference to the rules and precedents (if any) set by the
Options Exchange to account for the Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-listing, Nationalization or Insolvency, as the case may be, that in the determination of the Calculation Agent would have given rise to an adjustment by the Options Exchange if such
options were so traded; or 

  

	 	(iv)	unless the applicable Final Terms provides that “Share Substitution” shall not be applicable, then on or after the relevant Merger Date, Tender Offer Date, or
the date of the Nationalization, Insolvency or De-listing (as the case may be): 

  

	 	(A)	Where the Share Linked Notes relate to a single Share, the Calculation Agent may substitute the share (the “Substitute Share”) selected by it in
accordance with the Share Substitution Criteria in place of such Share (the “Affected Share”) which is affected by such Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency or De-listing and the Substitute Share will be deemed to
be “Share” and the relevant issuer of such shares, a “Share Company” for the purposes of the Notes, and the Calculation Agent will make such adjustment, if any, to any of the terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the
applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines appropriate, provided that in the event that any amount payable under the Notes was to be determined by reference to the price of the Affected Share on
the Trade Date (or any such other historical date specified in the applicable Final Terms), the relevant price of each Substitute Share will be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following formula: 

A x (B/C) 

Where: 

“A” is the official closing price of the relevant Substitute Share on the relevant exchange, as determined by the
Calculation Agent, on the date that the substitution is effected; 
  

 Schedule 6-2-24 

 “B” is the price of the Affected Share on the Trade Date (or any such
other historical date specified in the applicable Final Terms) where such price is defined in the applicable Final Terms for the purposes of calculating any value or determining any amount payable in respect of the Notes; and 

“C” is the official closing price of the relevant Affected Share on the relevant Exchange on the date that the
substitution is effected. 
  

	 	(B)	Where the Share Linked Notes relate to a Basket of Shares, the Calculation Agent may adjust the Basket of Shares to include a share or shares (the “Substitute
Shares”) selected by it in accordance with the Share Substitution Criteria in place of the Share(s) (the “Affected Share(s)”) which are affected by such Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency or De-listing
and the Substitute Shares will be deemed to be “Shares” and the relevant issuer of each such share, a “Share Company” for the purposes of the Notes, and the Calculation Agent will make such adjustment, if any, to any of the terms
of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines appropriate, provided that in the event that any amount payable under the Notes was to be determined by reference
to the price of the Affected Share on the Trade Date (or any such other historical date specified in the applicable Final Terms), the relevant price of each Substitute Share will be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the
following formula: 

 A x (B/C) 

Where: 

“A” is the official closing price of the relevant Substitute Share on the relevant exchange, as determined by the
Calculation Agent on the date that the substitution is effected; 
 “B” is the price of the Affected Share on
the Trade Date (or any such other historical date specified in the applicable Final Terms) where such price is defined in the applicable Final Terms for the purposes of calculating any value or determining any amount payable in respect of the Notes;
and 
 “C” is the official closing price of the relevant Affected Share on the relevant Exchange on the date
that the substitution is effected. 
 The weighting of each Substitute Share in the basket will be equal to the weighting of the
relevant Affected Share. 
 Upon the occurrence of a Merger Event, De-listing, Nationalization, Insolvency or, if applicable,
Tender Offer, the Issuer shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 stating the occurrence of the Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization or Insolvency, as the case may be, giving details thereof
and the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of any such Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-listing, Nationalization or Insolvency, as the case may
be. 
  

	6.	Non-euro Quoted Shares 

In respect of Share Linked Notes relating to Shares originally quoted, listed and/or dealt as of the Trade Date in a currency of a member
state of the European Union that has not adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty, if such Shares are at any time after the Trade Date quoted, listed and/or dealt exclusively in euro on the relevant Exchange or, where the Exchange
is specified as not applicable in the Final Terms, the principal market on which those Shares are traded, then the Calculation Agent will adjust any of the terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent
determines in its sole and absolute discretion to be appropriate to preserve the economic terms of the Notes. The Calculation Agent will make any conversion necessary for purposes of any such adjustment as of the Valuation Time at an appropriate mid
market spot rate of 
  

 Schedule 6-2-25 

 
exchange determined by the Calculation Agent prevailing as of the Valuation Time. No adjustments under this provision will affect the currency denomination of any payment obligation arising out
of the Notes.

(i) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind, or dispose of any transaction(s) or asset(s) it deems necessary to hedge the equity or other price risk of the Issuer issuing and performing its obligations with respect to the
Share Linked Notes, or (ii) realize, recover, or remit the proceeds of any such transaction(s) or asset(s), provided that any such materially increased amount that is incurred solely due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the
Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents shall not be deemed an Increased Cost of Hedging.

Valuation Postponement shall be applicable, then, if the Calculation Agent determines that the relevant Scheduled Reference Date (if the Scheduled Reference Date is not an Unscheduled Holiday for the Currency Price) or the Adjusted Scheduled
Reference Date (if the Scheduled Reference Date is an Unscheduled Holiday for the Currency Price) is an FX Disrupted Day, then such Valuation Date or Averaging Date shall be the first FX Business Day which is not an FX Disrupted Day unless an FX
Market Disruption Event continues to exist (measured from such Scheduled Reference Date or Adjusted Scheduled Reference Rate, as applicable) for a consecutive number of calendar days equal to the Maximum Days of EM Valuation Postponement. In that

be deemed to be such Valuation Date or Averaging Date and (ii) if such Valuation Date or Averaging Date is postponed by the number of calendar days equal to the Maximum Days of Cumulative Postponement owing to Unscheduled Holidays, and on the
first day after the Last Postponed Day, an applicable FX Market Disruption Event shall have occurred or be continuing, then the Currency Price in respect of such Valuation Date or Averaging Date or other relevant date shall be determined in

any relevant date under the Notes on which an amount may be payable, a country has lawfully eliminated, converted, redenominated or exchanged its currency in effect on the Issue Date or any Successor Currency, as the case may be (the
“Original Currency”) for a Successor Currency, then for the purposes of calculating any amounts of the Original Currency or effecting settlement thereof, any Original Currency amounts will be converted to the Successor Currency by
multiplying the amount of Original Currency by a ratio of Successor Currency to Original Currency, which ratio will be calculated on the basis of the exchange rate set forth by the relevant country of the Original Currency for converting the
Original Currency into the Successor Currency on the date on which the elimination, conversion, redenomination or exchange took place, as determined by the Calculation Agent. If there is

  

 Schedule 6-2-37

faith and in its sole and absolute discretion, select such other exchange rate or other basis for the conversion of an amount of the Original Currency to the Successor Currency and, will make such adjustment(s) that it determines to be appropriate,
if any, to any variable, calculation methodology, valuation, settlement, payment terms, or any other terms in respect of the Notes to account for such elimination, conversion, redenomination, or exchange of the Subject Currency or Base Currency, as
the case may be; and

substitution or replacement will be determined in accordance with applicable law. 

  

	9.	Rebasing of Notes 

 If the
applicable Final Terms specifies that “Rebasing” is applicable, then if, on or prior to any Valuation Date or Averaging Date or any other relevant date, the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain a value for a Subject Currency (because the
Subject Currency and/or Base Currency ceases to exist, or for any other reason other than a temporary disruption, as determined by the Calculation Agent), the Calculation Agent may rebase the Notes against another foreign exchange rate determined by
the Calculation Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, to be a comparable foreign exchange rate. If the Calculation Agent determines in its sole and absolute discretion that there is not such a comparable foreign exchange rate, the Issuer may
elect to redeem or settle the Notes by notice to Noteholders on the date specified in the notice at the Early Redemption Amount of each Note. 
  

	10.	Consequences of an Additional Disruption Event 

If the applicable Final Terms specifies that Additional Disruption Events shall be applicable, then:

	 	(ii)	give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified
Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount;

the occurrence of the Additional Disruption Event giving details thereof and the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of the Additional
Disruption Event; and

	2.	Terms relating to Calculation of Prices 

  

	(a)	Common Pricing 

 If the relevant
Final Terms provides that Commodity Linked Condition 2(a) is applicable, and, with respect to Commodity Linked Notes relating to a Basket of Commodities, if “Common Pricing” is specified in the applicable Final Terms as: 

 

 Schedule 6-2-42 

	 	(i)	“Applicable” then, no date will be a Pricing Date unless such date is a day on which all referenced Commodity Reference Prices (for which such date would
otherwise be a Pricing Date) are scheduled to be published or announced, as determined on the Trade Date of the Notes as of the Issue Date; 

  

	 	(ii)	“Not Applicable” then, if the Calculation Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event has occurred or exists on the Pricing Date in respect of any
Relevant Commodity and/or Commodity Index (each an “Affected Commodity”), the Relevant Price of each Commodity and/or Commodity Index within the basket which is not affected by the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event shall be
determined on its scheduled Pricing Date and the Relevant Price for each Affected Commodity shall be determined in accordance with the first applicable Disruption Fallback that provides a Relevant Price. 

All determinations made by the Calculation Agent pursuant to this condition will be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders and the
Issuer, except in the case of manifest error. 
 If the relevant Final Terms provides that Commodity Linked Condition 2(a) is
not applicable, then Commodity Linked Condition 2(a) shall not apply to the relevant Commodity Linked Notes. 
  

	(b)	Correction to Published Prices 

For purposes of determining or calculating the Relevant Price (or any price or value published or announced on any date which is utilized
for any calculation or determination in connection with the Commodity Linked Notes), if the price published or announced on a given day and used or to be used by the Calculation Agent to determine a Relevant Price (or any price or value published or
announced on any date which is utilized for any calculation or determination in connection with the Commodity Linked Notes) is subsequently corrected and the correction is published or announced by the person responsible for that publication or
announcement within 30 calendar days after the original publication or announcement (or, if earlier the day falling two Business Days preceding the date on which payment of any amount or delivery of any assets may have to be made, in each case
calculated by reference to such Relevant Price (or any price or value published or announced on any date which is utilized for any calculation or determination in connection with the Commodity Linked Notes)), the Calculation Agent may, in its sole
discretion, use such corrected price in such calculation. 
  

	3.	Market Disruption and Disruption Fallback 

If, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, a Market Disruption Event (as defined below) has occurred and is continuing on any Pricing
Date (or, if different, the day on which the price for that Pricing Date would, in the ordinary course, be published by the Price Source), the Relevant Price for that Pricing Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent, in accordance with the
first applicable Disruption Fallback (as set out below) that provides a Relevant Price: 
  

	(a)	Market Disruption Event 

“Market Disruption Event” means the occurrence of any of the following events: 

 

	 	(i)	with respect to all Commodities: 

  

	 	(A)	Price Source Disruption;

	 	(iii)	with respect to a Commodity Index: 

  

	 	(A)	a temporary or permanent failure by the applicable exchange or other price source to announce or publish (x) the Commodity Reference Price (provided that the
Calculation Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine that such failure (i) shall not be a Market Disruption Event and shall instead be dealt with under paragraph (i) of the proviso to the definition of Price Source
specified in Commodity Linked Condition 1 (Definitions), or (ii) shall instead amount to an Index Adjustment Event in respect of such Commodity Index, and proceed in accordance with Commodity Linked Condition 4 (Adjustments to a Commodity
Index)) or (y) the closing price for any futures contract included in the Commodity Index; 

  

	 	(B)	a material limitation, suspension or disruption of trading in one or more of the futures contracts included in the Commodity Index which results in a failure by the
exchange on which each applicable futures contract is traded to report a closing price for such contract on the day on which such event occurs or any succeeding day on which it continues; or 

 

	 	(C)	the closing price for any futures contract included in the Commodity Index is a “limit price”, which means that the closing price for such contract for a day
has increased or decreased from the previous day’s closing price by the maximum amount permitted under applicable exchange rules. 

  

	 	(iv)	Disruption Fallback 

“Disruption Fallback” means a source or method that may give rise to an alternative basis for determining the Relevant
Price in respect of a specified Commodity Reference Price when a Market Disruption Event occurs or exists on a day that is a Pricing Date in respect of the relevant Note. A Disruption Fallback is applicable if it is specified in the applicable Final
Terms or, if no Disruption Fallback is specified in the applicable Final Terms, shall mean: 
  

	 	(A)	with respect to a relevant Commodity (in the following order): 

  

	 	(I)	Fallback Reference Price (if applicable); 

  

	 	(II)	Delayed Publication or Announcement and Postponement (each to operate concurrently with the other and each subject to a period of two consecutive Commodity Business
Days (measured from and including the original day that would otherwise have been the Pricing Date (or, if applicable, measured from and including the day that is the original date that would otherwise have been the Pricing Date, following the
adjustment specified in the applicable Final Terms on account of such original date not being a Commodity Business Day)), or, if shorter, the period commencing on, and including, the original day that would otherwise have been the Pricing Date and
ending on, and including, the Commodity Cut-Off Date) provided, however, that the price determined by Postponement shall be the Relevant Price only if Delayed Publication or Announcement does not yield a Relevant Price within those two consecutive
Commodity Business Days (or, if applicable, the number of Commodity Business Days (if any) falling within the period ending on the Commodity Cut-Off Date); and 

 

	 	(III)	Calculation Agent Determination; 

  

	 	(B)	with respect to a Commodity Index the Relevant Price as determined by the Calculation Agent: 

 

	 	(1)	using: 

  

 Schedule 6-2-44 

	 	(a)	with respect to each futures contract included in the Commodity Index which is not affected by the Market Disruption Event, the closing prices of each such contract on
the applicable determination date; 

  

	 	(b)	with respect to each futures contract included in the Commodity Index which is affected by the Market Disruption Event, but for which a Market Disruption Event ceased
to exist on or prior to the Commodity Index Cut-Off Date, the closing prices of each such contract on the first day following the applicable determination date on which no Market Disruption Event is occurring with respect to such contract; and

  

	 	(c)	with respect to each futures contract included in the Commodity Index which is affected by the Market Disruption Event, where a Market Disruption Event continues to
exist as of the Commodity Index Cut-Off Date, the Calculation Agent’s good faith estimate of the closing price of each such contract on the Commodity Index Cut-Off Date; 

 

	 	(2)	and as specified in the applicable Final Terms. 

Subject as provided below, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Relevant Price by reference to the closing prices determined in
(1)(a), (1)(b) and (1)(c) above or as provided in (2) above using the then current method for calculating the Commodity Reference Price. 

Where (i) the original date that would otherwise have been the Pricing Date is adjusted on account of such original date not being a
Commodity Business Day, and the Pricing Date would fall on or after the Commodity Index Cut-Off Date following such adjustment, or (ii) a Market Disruption Event with respect to one or more futures contracts included in the Commodity Index has
occurred on an applicable determination date and continues to exist as of the relevant Commodity Index Cut-Off Date for such applicable determination date, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Relevant Price on such Commodity Index Cut-Off
Date. In calculating the Relevant Price as set out herein, the Calculation Agent shall use the formula for calculating the Commodity Reference Price last in effect prior to the Market Disruption Event (if applicable). 

 

	4.	Adjustments to a Commodity Index 

  

	(a)	Successor Index Sponsor Calculates and Reports a Commodity Index 

If a relevant Commodity Index is (i) not calculated and announced by the Index Sponsor but is calculated and announced by a successor
sponsor (the “Successor Index Sponsor”) acceptable to the Issuer, or (ii) replaced by a successor index using, in the determination of the Calculation Agent, the same or a substantially similar formula for and method of
calculation as used in the calculation of that Commodity Index, then in each case that index (the “Successor Index”) will be deemed to be the Commodity Index. 

 

	(b)	Modification and Cessation of Calculation of a Commodity Index 

If on or prior to a Pricing Date (i) the relevant Index Sponsor makes a material change in the formula for or the method of
calculating a relevant Commodity Index or in any other way materially modifies that Commodity Index (other than a modification prescribed in that formula or method to maintain that Commodity Index in the event of changes in constituent commodities
and weightings and other routine events), or (ii) the Index Sponsor permanently cancels a relevant Commodity Index or (iii) the Index Sponsor fails to calculate and announce a relevant Commodity Index and there is no Successor Index
Sponsor or Successor Index then the Calculation Agent may at its option (in the case of (i)) and shall (in the case of (ii) and (iii)) (such events (i) (ii) and (iii) to be collectively referred to as “Index Adjustment
Events”) (provided that the Calculation Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine that event (iii) (y) shall not be an Index Adjustment Event and shall instead be dealt

  

 Schedule 6-2-45 

 
with under paragraph (i) of the proviso to the definition of Price Source specified in Commodity Linked Condition 1 (Definitions), or (z) shall instead amount to a Market Disruption
Event in respect of such Commodity Index, and proceed in accordance with Commodity Linked Condition 3 (Market Disruption and Disruption Fallback)) calculate the Commodity Reference Price using in lieu of the published level for that Commodity Index,
the level for that Commodity Index as at the relevant determination date as determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating that Commodity Index last in effect prior to the relevant Index Adjustment
Event, but using only those futures contracts that comprised that Commodity Index immediately prior to the relevant Index Adjustment Event (other than those futures contracts that have ceased to be listed on any relevant exchange). 

 

	5.	Consequences of an Additional Disruption Event in respect of a Commodity Index 

 

	(a)	Following the determination by the Calculation Agent that an Additional Disruption Event has occurred in respect of a Commodity Index, the Issuer in its sole and
absolute discretion may take the action described in (i) or (ii) below: 

  

	 	(i)	require the Calculation Agent to determine in its sole and absolute discretion the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any of the other terms of the Terms and
Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the Additional Disruption Event and determine the effective date of that adjustment; or 

  

	 	(ii)	give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified
Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount. 

  

	(b)	Upon the occurrence of an Additional Disruption Event, the Issuer shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 stating
the occurrence of the Additional Disruption Event giving details thereof and the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of the Additional
Disruption Event.

being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, if applicable) (the “Scheduled Averaging Date”) and the Averaging Date for a Fund Share affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such
Fund Share. If the first succeeding Valid Date in relation to such Fund Share has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which
it was scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date) in relation to

Disrupted Days” shall be applicable, the Averaging Date for each Fund Share shall be the first succeeding Common Valid Date in relation to such Fund Share. If the first succeeding Common Valid Date has not occurred as of the Valuation Time on
the Averaging Cut-Off Date or if such Averaging Date falls on the Averaging Cut-Off Date owing to the original date on which it was scheduled to fall not being a Common Scheduled Trading Day, then (A) the Averaging Cut-Off Date shall be deemed
to be the Averaging Date (irrespective of whether the Averaging Cut-Off Date is already an Averaging Date), and (B) the Calculation Agent shall determine the relevant level or price for that Averaging Date in accordance with sub-paragraph

determines that the Fund Share Price of such Fund Share as of the Barrier Event Valuation Time (intraday) on any Barrier Event Determination Day is less than or equal to the corresponding Barrier Level for such Fund Share and such Barrier Event
Determination Day. 

 For the purpose of determining whether a Barrier Event (intraday) has occurred on any day,
the definition of Market Disruption Event specified in Fund Linked Condition 9 shall be amended such that (i) all references to “during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time” shall be deleted, and (ii) in
sub-paragraph (b) each reference to “Valuation Time” and “Scheduled Closing Time” shall be construed as a reference to “Barrier Event Valuation Time (intraday)”. 

 

	(b)	A “Barrier Event (closing)” means (and a Barrier Event (closing) shall be deemed to occur if), in respect of a Fund Share, the Calculation Agent
determines that the Fund Share Closing Price of any Fund Share as of the Barrier Event Valuation Time (closing) on any Barrier Event Determination Day is less than or equal to the corresponding Barrier Level for such Fund Share and such Barrier
Event Determination Day. 

  

	9.	Market Disruption 

“Market Disruption Event” means, in respect of a Fund Share: 

 

	 	(a)	the occurrence or existence at any time during the one hour period that ends at the relevant Valuation Time: 

 

	 	(x)	of any suspension of or limitation imposed on trading by the relevant Exchange or Related Exchange or otherwise and whether by reason of movements in price exceeding
limits permitted by the relevant Exchange or Related Exchange or otherwise: 

  

	 	(i)	relating to the relevant Fund Share on such Exchange; or 

  

	 	(ii)	relating to securities that comprise 20 per cent. or more of the level of the relevant Underlying Index or any relevant successor index; or

  

	 	(iii)	in futures or options contracts relating to such Fund Shares or the relevant Underlying Index on any relevant Related Exchange, or 

 

	 	(y)	 of any event (other than an event described in (b) below) that disrupts or impairs (as determined by the Calculation Agent) the ability of market
participants in general to (i) effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, the Fund Shares on the Exchange, (ii) effect 

 

 Schedule 6-2-60 

	 	 
transactions in, or obtain market values for securities that comprise 20 per cent. or more of the level of the relevant Underlying Index, or (iii) to effect transactions in, or obtain
market values for, futures or options contracts relating to such Fund Shares or the relevant Underlying Index on any relevant Related Exchange; or 

  

	 	(b)	the closure on any Exchange Business Day of any relevant Exchange(s) or any Related Exchange(s) prior to its Scheduled Closing Time unless such earlier closing time is
announced by such Exchange(s) or such Related Exchange(s), as the case may be, at least one hour prior to (A) the actual closing time for the regular trading session on such Exchange(s) or such Related Exchange on such Exchange Business Day or,
if earlier, (B) the submission deadline for orders to be entered into such Exchange or Related Exchange system for execution at the Valuation Time on such Exchange Business Day, 

which in any such case the Calculation Agent determines is material. 

For the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists in respect of a Fund Share at any time, if an event giving rise
to a Market Disruption Event occurs in respect of a security included in the relevant Underlying Index at that time, then the relevant percentage contribution of that security, to the level of the relevant Underlying Index shall be based on a
comparison of (i) the portion of the level of the relevant Underlying Index attributable to that security, and (ii) the overall level of the relevant Underlying Index immediately before the occurrence of such Market Disruption Event.

 The Issuer shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 of the occurrence of a
Disrupted Day on any day that, but for the occurrence of a Disrupted Day, would have been a Valuation Date provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of any such Disrupted Day. 

 

	10.	Potential Adjustment Event 

“Potential Adjustment Event” means any of the following: 

 

	 	(i)	a subdivision, consolidation or reclassification of relevant Fund Shares (unless resulting in a Merger Event or Tender Offer), or a free distribution or dividend of any

capital stock of the ETF pursuant to a shareholder rights plan or arrangement directed against hostile takeovers that provides upon the occurrence of certain events for a distribution of preferred stock, warrants, debt instruments or stock rights at
a price below their market value, as determined by the Calculation Agent, provided that any adjustment effected as a result of such an event shall be readjusted upon any redemption of such rights; or 

 

 Schedule 6-2-61 

	 	(vii)	any other event that may have a diluting or concentrative effect on the theoretical value of the relevant Fund Shares. 

Following a Potential Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent will, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether such Potential
Adjustment Event has a diluting or concentrative effect on the theoretical value of the relevant Fund Shares and, if so, will (a) make the corresponding adjustment(s), if any, to any one or more of the terms of the Terms and Conditions of the
Notes and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for that diluting or concentrative effect and (b) determine the effective date(s) of that adjustment(s). The Calculation Agent may, but need not,
determine the appropriate adjustment(s) by reference to the adjustment(s) in respect of such Potential Adjustment Event made by an options exchange to options on the relevant Fund Shares traded on such options exchange. 

Upon the making of any such adjustment, the Calculation Agent shall as soon as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances give
notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 stating the adjustment made and giving brief details of the Potential Adjustment Event, provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of any
such adjustment.

	 	(iv)	any other event occurs in relation to the ETF and/or the Fund Shares which is materially prejudicial to the Issuer in connection with the issue of the Notes or any
hedging arrangements relating to the Notes, 

 as determined by the Calculation Agent. 

“Merger Date” means the closing date of a Merger Event or, where a closing date cannot be determined under the local law

the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the De-Listing, Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency, or Material Underlying Event, as the case may be, and determine the effective date(s) of that
adjustment(s). The Calculation Agent may (but need not) determine the appropriate adjustment(s) by reference to the adjustment(s) in respect of the De-Listing, Merger Event, Tender Offer, Nationalization, Insolvency, or Material Underlying Event
made by any options exchange to options on the relevant Fund Share traded on that options exchange;

such adjustment, if any, to any one or more of the terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines appropriate, with reference to the rules and precedents
(if any) set by the Options Exchange to account for the Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-listing, Nationalization, Insolvency, or Material Underlying Event, as the case may be, that in the determination of the Calculation Agent would have given rise
to an adjustment by the Options Exchange if such options were so traded. 

 Upon the occurrence of a Merger Event,
Tender Offer, De-listing, Nationalization, Insolvency, or Material Underlying Event, the Issuer shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 stating the occurrence of the Merger Event, Tender Offer,

jurisdiction of any applicable law or regulation (including any action taken by a taxing authority), the Calculation Agent determines in its sole and absolute discretion that (A) it has become illegal to hold, acquire, or dispose of any
relevant Fund Share or (B) it will incur a materially increased cost in performing its obligations in relation to the Fund Linked Notes (including, without limitation, due to any increase in tax liability, decrease in tax benefit or other
adverse effect on the tax position of the Issuer and/or any of its affiliates). 
 “Hedging Disruption” means
that the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents is unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to (i) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind, or dispose of any transaction(s) or asset(s) it deems
necessary to hedge the equity or other price risk of the Issuer issuing and performing its obligations with respect to the Fund Linked Notes, or (ii) realize, recover or remit the proceeds of any such transaction(s) or asset(s). 

“Increased Cost of Hedging” means that the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents would incur a materially
increased (as compared with circumstances existing on the Trade Date) amount of tax, duty, expense, or fee (other than brokerage commissions) to (i) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind, or dispose of any
transaction(s) or asset(s) it deems necessary to hedge the equity or other price risk of the Issuer issuing and performing its obligations with respect to the Fund Linked Notes, or (ii) realize, recover, or remit the proceeds of any such
transaction(s) or asset(s), provided that any such materially increased amount that is incurred solely due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the Issuer and/or any of its Affiliates or agents shall not be deemed an Increased Cost of
Hedging. 
  

	(b)	If an Additional Disruption Event occurs, the Issuer in its sole and absolute discretion may take the action described in (i) or (ii) below:

  

	 	(i)	require the Calculation Agent to determine in its sole and absolute discretion the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any of the other terms of the Terms and
Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the Additional Disruption Event and determine the effective date of that adjustment; or 

  

	 	(ii)	give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified
Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount.

the occurrence of the Additional Disruption Event giving details thereof and the action proposed to be taken in relation thereto provided that any failure to give, or non-receipt of, such notice will not affect the validity of the Additional
Disruption Event. 

  

 Schedule 6-2-64 

 ANNEX 7 

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR INFLATION LINKED NOTES 

The terms and conditions applicable to Inflation Linked Notes shall comprise the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and the additional
Terms and Conditions set out below (the “Inflation Linked Conditions”), in each case subject to completion and/or amendment in the applicable Final Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between the Terms and
Conditions of the Notes, and the Inflation Linked Conditions, the Inflation Linked Conditions shall prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between (i) the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and/or the Inflation Linked Conditions and
(ii) the Final Terms, the Final Terms shall prevail. 
  

	1.	Definitions 

 For the
purpose of the Inflation Linked Notes: 
 “Cut-Off Date” means, in respect of a Determination Date, five
Business Days prior to such Determination Date, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Final Terms. 
 “Delayed Index
Level Event” means, in respect of any Determination Date and an Inflation Index, that the relevant Index Sponsor fails to publish or announce the level of such Index (the “Relevant Level”) in respect of any Reference Month
which is to be utilized in any calculation or determination to be made by the Issuer in respect of such Determination Date, at any time on or prior to the Cut-Off Date. 

“Determination Date” means each date specified as such in the applicable Final Terms. 

“End Date” means each date specified as such in the applicable Final Terms. 

“Fallback Bond” means, in respect of an Inflation Index, a bond selected by the Calculation Agent and issued by the
government of the country to whose level of inflation the relevant Inflation Index relates and which pays a coupon or redemption amount which is calculated by reference to such Inflation Index, with a maturity date which falls on (a) the same
day as the End Date as specified in the applicable Final Terms, (b) the next longest maturity after the End Date if there is no such bond maturing on the End Date, or (c) the next shortest maturity before the End Date if no bond defined in
(a) or (b) is selected by the Calculation Agent. If the relevant Inflation Index relates to the level of inflation across the European Monetary Union, the Calculation Agent will select an inflation-linked bond that is a debt obligation of
one of the governments (but not any government agency) of France, Italy, Germany, or Spain and which pays a coupon or redemption amount which is calculated by reference to the level of inflation in the European Monetary Union. In each case, the
Calculation Agent will select the Fallback Bond from those inflation-linked bonds issued on or before the Issue Date and, if there is more than one inflation-linked bond maturing on the same date, the Fallback Bond shall be selected by the
Calculation Agent from those bonds. If the Fallback Bond redeems, the Calculation Agent will select a new Fallback Bond on the same basis, but selected from all eligible bonds in issue at the time the original Fallback Bond redeems (including any
bond for which the redeemed bond is exchanged). 
 “Inflation Index” means each inflation index specified in
the applicable Final Terms and related expressions shall be construed accordingly. 
 “Inflation Index Sponsor”
means, in relation to an Inflation Index, the entity that publishes or announces (directly or through an agent) the level of such Inflation Index which, as of the Issue Date, is the Inflation Index Sponsor specified in the applicable Final Terms.

 “Reference Month” means the calendar month for which the level of the Inflation Index was reported,
regardless of when this information is published or announced. If the period for which the level of the Inflation Index was reported is a period other than a month, the Reference Month shall be the period for which the level of the Inflation Index
was reported. 
 “Related Bond” means, in respect of an Inflation Index, the bond specified as such in the
applicable Final Terms. If the Related Bond specified in the applicable Final Terms is “Fallback Bond”, then, for any Related Bond 

 

 Schedule 6-2-65 

 
determination, the Calculation Agent shall use the Fallback Bond. If no bond is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the Related Bond and “Fallback Bond: Not Applicable” is
specified in the applicable Final Terms there will be no Related Bond. If a bond is selected as the Related Bond in the applicable Final Terms and that bond redeems or matures before the End Date, unless “Fallback Bond: Not Applicable” is
specified in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent shall use the Fallback Bond for any Related Bond determination. 
  

	2.	Inflation Index Adjustments 

  

	(a)	Delay in Publication 

Subject to Inflation Linked Condition 2(b), if the Calculation Agent determines that a Delayed Index Level Event in respect of an Index
has occurred with respect to any Determination Date, then the Relevant Level for such Index the subject of such Delayed Index Level Event (the “Substitute Index Level”) shall be determined by the Calculation Agent as follows:

  

	 	(i)	if Related Bond is specified as applicable for such Index in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Substitute Index Level by reference
to the corresponding index level determined under the terms and conditions of the relevant Related Bond; or 

  

	 	(ii)	if (I) Related Bond is specified as not applicable for such Index in the applicable Final Terms, or (II) the Calculation Agent is not able to determine a
Substitute Index Level under (i) above, the Calculation Agent shall determine the Substitute Index Level by reference to the following formula: 

Substitute Index Level = Base Level 6 (Latest Level/Reference Level) 

where: 

“Base Level” means, in respect of an Inflation Index, the level of such Inflation Index (excluding any “flash”
estimates) published or announced by the relevant Inflation Index Sponsor in respect of the month which is 12 calendar months prior to the month for which the Substitute Index Level is being determined. 

“Latest Level” means, in respect of an Inflation Index, the latest level of such Inflation Index (excluding any
“flash” estimates) published or announced by the relevant Inflation Index Sponsor prior to the month in respect of which the Substitute Index Level is being determined. 

“Reference Level” means, in respect of an Inflation Index, the level of such Inflation Index (excluding any
“flash” estimates) published or announced by the relevant Inflation Index Sponsor in respect of the month that is 12 calendar months prior to the month in respect of the Latest Level. 

The Issuer shall give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 of any Substitute Index Level calculated pursuant to this
Inflation Linked Condition 2. 
  

	(b)	Cessation of Publication 

If a level for the Inflation Index has not been published or announced for two consecutive months or the Inflation Index Sponsor announces
that it will no longer continue to publish or announce the Inflation Index then the Calculation Agent shall determine a successor index (in lieu of any previously applicable Inflation Index) for the purposes of the Inflation Linked Notes by using
the following methodology: 
  

	 	(i)	if at any time, a successor index has been designated by the Calculation Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Related Bond, such successor index shall be
designated a “Successor Index” notwithstanding that any other Successor Index may previously have been determined under paragraphs (ii), (iii) or (iv) below; or 

 

	 	(ii)	 if a Successor Index has not been determined pursuant to Inflation Linked Condition 2(b)(i) and Inflation Linked Condition 2(b)(ii) a notice has been
given or an announcement has been made by the Inflation Index Sponsor, specifying that the Inflation Index will be superseded by a replacement 

 

 Schedule 6-2-66 

	 	 
Inflation Index specified by the Inflation Index Sponsor, and the Calculation Agent determines that such replacement index is calculated using the same or substantially similar formula or method
of calculation as used in the calculation of the previously applicable Inflation Index, such replacement index shall be the Inflation Index for purposes of the Inflation Linked Notes from the date that such replacement Inflation Index comes into
effect; or 

  

	 	(iii)	if a Successor Index has not been determined pursuant to Inflation Linked Condition 2(b)(i), the Calculation Agent shall ask five leading independent dealers to state
what the replacement index for the Inflation Index should be. If between four and five responses are received, and of those four or five responses, three or more leading independent dealers state the same index, this index will be deemed the
“Successor Inflation Index”. If three responses are received, and two or more leading independent dealers state the same index, this index will be deemed the “Successor Inflation Index”. If fewer than three responses are
received, the Calculation Agent will proceed to Inflation Linked Condition 2(b)(iv); or 

  

	 	(iv)	if no replacement index or Successor Inflation Index has been deemed under Inflation Linked Conditions 2(b)(i), 2(b)(ii) or 2(b)(iii), by the next occurring Cut-Off
Date the Calculation Agent will determine an appropriate alternative index from such Cut-Off Date, and such index will be deemed a “Successor Inflation Index”; or 

 

	 	(v)	if the Calculation Agent determines that there is no appropriate alternative index, the Issuer shall give notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 and
redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes, each nominal amount of Notes equal to the Specified Denomination being redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount. 

 

	(c)	Rebasing of the Inflation Index 

If the Calculation Agent determines that the Inflation Index has been or will be rebased at any time, the Inflation Index as so rebased
(the “Rebased Index”) will be used for purposes of determining the level of the Inflation Index from the date of such rebasing; provided, however, that the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments as are made by the Calculation
Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Related Bond, if Related Bond is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, to the levels of the Rebased Index so that the Rebased Index levels reflect the same rate of inflation as the
Index before it was rebased, or, if Related Bond is specified as not applicable in the applicable Final Terms the Calculation Agent shall make adjustments to the levels of the Rebased Index so that the Rebased Index levels reflect the same rate of
inflation as the Inflation Index before it was rebased. 
  

	(d)	Material Modification Prior to Last Occurring Cut-Off 

If, on or prior to the last occurring Cut-Off Date, the Inflation Index Sponsor announces that it will make a material change to the
Inflation Index then the Calculation Agent shall make any such adjustments, if Related Bond is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, consistent with adjustments made to the Related Bond, or, if Related Bond is specified as not
applicable in the applicable Final Terms, only those adjustments to the Inflation Index necessary for the modified Inflation Index to continue as the Inflation Index.

with any redemption thereof; and 

  

	 	(f)	authorize the production of such notice in any applicable administrative or legal proceedings. 

No Asset Transfer Notice may be withdrawn after receipt thereof by the Relevant Clearing System or a Paying Agent as provided above. After
delivery of an Asset Transfer Notice, the relevant Noteholder may not transfer the Notes which are the subject of such notice. 

In the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, upon receipt of such notice, the Relevant Clearing System shall verify that the person
specified therein as the Noteholder is the holder of the specified nominal amount of Notes according to its books. 
 Subject
thereto, the Relevant Clearing System will confirm to the Principal Agent the ISIN, series number, and number of Notes the subject of such notice, the relevant account details (if applicable) and the details for the delivery of the Entitlement in
respect of each such Note. Upon receipt of such confirmation, the Principal Agent will inform the Issuer thereof. The Relevant Clearing System, will on or before the Maturity Delivery Date, debit the securities account of the relevant Noteholder
with the Notes the subject of the relevant Asset Transfer Notice. 
 Failure properly to complete and deliver an Asset Transfer
Notice may result in such notice being treated as null and void. Any determination as to whether such notice has been properly completed and delivered as provided in these Physical Delivery Conditions shall be made, in the case of Notes represented
by a Global Note, by the Relevant Clearing System, after consultation with the Principal Agent and the Issuer and shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer and the relevant Noteholder, or, in the case of Notes in definitive form, by the relevant
Paying Agent after consultation with the Principal Agent and the Issuer and shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer and the relevant Noteholder. 

If such Asset Transfer Notice is subsequently corrected to the satisfaction of the Relevant Clearing System or the relevant Paying Agent,
in each case in consultation with the Principal Agent and the Issuer, it shall be deemed to be a new Asset Transfer Notice submitted at the time such correction was delivered as provided above. 

The Relevant Clearing System or the relevant Paying Agent, as applicable, shall use its best efforts promptly to notify the Noteholder
submitting an Asset Transfer Notice if, in consultation with the Principal Agent and the Issuer, it has determined that such Asset Transfer Notice is incomplete or not in proper form. In the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on its part,
none of the Issuer, 
  

 Schedule 6-2-69 

 
the Paying Agents, the Relevant Clearing System or the Principal Agent shall be liable to any person with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with such
determination or the notification of such determination to a Noteholder. 
 The Entitlement will be delivered at the risk of the
relevant Noteholder, in the manner provided above on the Maturity Date (such date, subject to adjustment in accordance with these Physical Delivery Conditions, the “Maturity Delivery Date”), provided that the Asset Transfer Notice
is duly delivered to the Relevant Clearing System or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, with a copy to the Principal Agent and the Issuer, as provided above, not later than the close of business in each place of receipt on the Cut-Off Date.

 If an Asset Transfer Notice is delivered to the Relevant Clearing System or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, with a copy to
the Principal Agent and the Issuer, later than the close of business in each place of receipt on the Cut-Off Date, then the Entitlement will be delivered as soon as practicable after the Maturity Date (in which case, such date of delivery shall be
the Maturity Delivery Date). Provided that if in respect of a Note an Asset Transfer Notice is not delivered to the Relevant Clearing System or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, with a copy to the Principal Agent and the Issuer, later than the
close of business in each place of receipt on the 90th calendar day following the Cut-Off Date, the Issuer’s obligations in respect of such Note shall be discharged and no further liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer. For the
avoidance of doubt, in such circumstances such Noteholder shall not be entitled to any payment, whether of interest or otherwise, as a result of such Maturity Delivery Date falling after the originally designated Maturity Delivery Date and no
liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer. 
 Delivery of the Entitlement in respect of the Notes is subject to all
applicable laws, regulations and practices in force on the Maturity Delivery Date and none of the Issuer or any of its Affiliates or agents and the Paying Agents shall incur any liability whatsoever if it is unable to effect the transactions
contemplated, after using all reasonable efforts, as a result of any such laws, regulations or practices. None of the Issuer or any of its Affiliates or agents and the Paying Agents shall under any circumstances be liable for any acts or defaults of
the Relevant Clearing System in relation to the performance of its duties in relation to the Notes. 
 For such period of time
after the Maturity Delivery Date, as any person other than the relevant Noteholder shall continue to be the legal owner of the securities or obligations comprising the Entitlement (the “Intervening Period”), neither of the Issuer
nor any other such person shall (i) be under any obligation to deliver or procure delivery to the relevant Noteholder or any subsequent beneficial owner of such Note any letter, certificate, notice, circular or any other document or, except as
provided herein, payment whatsoever received by that person in respect of such securities or obligations, (ii) be under any obligation to exercise or procure exercise of any or all rights (including voting rights) attaching to such securities
or obligations during the Intervening Period or (iii) be under any liability to the relevant Noteholder or any subsequent beneficial owner of such Note in respect of any loss or damage which the relevant Noteholder or subsequent beneficial
owner may sustain or suffer as a result, whether directly or indirectly, of that person being the legal owner of such securities or obligations during such Intervening Period. 

Where the Entitlement comprises shares, any dividend or other distribution in respect of such Entitlement will be payable to the party
that would receive such dividend or other distribution according to market practice for a sale of the share executed on the Maturity Delivery Date and to be delivered in the same manner as the Entitlement. Any such dividend or other distribution to
be paid to a Noteholder shall be paid to the account specified in the relevant Asset Transfer Notice. 
 The Noteholders will
receive an Entitlement comprising of the nearest number (rounded down) of Relevant Assets capable of being delivered by the Issuer (taking into account that a Noteholder’s entire holding may be aggregated at the Issuer’s discretion for the
purpose of delivering the Entitlements), and in respect of the amount of Relevant Assets not capable of being delivered, an amount in the Specified Currency which shall be the value of the amount of the Relevant Assets so

  

 Schedule 6-2-70 

 
rounded down, as calculated by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion from such source(s) as it may select (converted if necessary into the Specified Currency by reference to such exchange
rate as the Calculation Agent deems appropriate). 
  

	2.	Settlement Disruption Event 

If, prior to the delivery of the Entitlement in accordance with these Physical Delivery Conditions, a Settlement Disruption Event is
subsisting, then the Maturity Delivery Date in respect of such Note shall be postponed until the next Settlement Business Day (as specified in the applicable Final Terms) on which no Settlement Disruption Event is subsisting and notice thereof shall
be given to the relevant Noteholder, in accordance with Condition 14. Such Noteholder shall not be entitled to any payment, whether of interest or otherwise, on such Note as a result of any delay in the delivery of the Entitlement pursuant to these
Physical Delivery Conditions. Where delivery of the Entitlement has been postponed as provided in this these Physical Delivery Conditions the Issuer shall not be in breach of these Conditions and no liability in respect thereof shall attach to the
Issuer. 
 For so long as delivery of the Entitlement in respect of any Note is not practicable by reason of a Settlement
Disruption Event, then in lieu of physical settlement and notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Issuer may elect in its sole discretion to satisfy its obligations in respect of the relevant Note by payment to the relevant Noteholder of the
Disruption Cash Settlement Price not later than on the third Business Day following the date that the notice of such election (the “Election Notice”) is given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14. 

 

	3.	Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity 

If Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms and, in the opinion of the Calculation
Agent, it is impossible or impracticable to deliver, when due, some or all of the Relevant Assets comprising the Entitlement (the “Affected Relevant Assets”), where such failure to deliver is due to illiquidity in the market for the
Relevant Assets (a “Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity”), then: 
  

	 	(a)	subject as provided elsewhere in these Physical Delivery Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms, any Relevant Assets which are not Affected Relevant Assets, will
be delivered on the originally designated Maturity Delivery Date in accordance with these Physical Delivery Conditions; and 

  

	 	(b)	in respect of any Affected Relevant Assets, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Issuer may elect in its sole discretion, in lieu of delivery of the Affected
Relevant Assets, to pay to the relevant Noteholder the Failure to Deliver Settlement Price (as defined below) on the fifth Business Day following the date the Failure to Deliver Notice (as defined below) is given to the Noteholders in accordance
with Condition 14. The Issuer shall give notice (such notice a “Failure to Deliver Notice”) as soon as reasonably practicable to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 that the provisions of this Physical Delivery Condition
3 apply. 

  

	4.	Option to Vary Settlement 

If the applicable Final Terms indicate that the Issuer has an option to vary settlement in respect of the Notes, the Issuer may at its
sole and unfettered discretion in respect of each such Note, elect not to pay the relevant Noteholders the Final Redemption Amount or to deliver or procure delivery of the Entitlement to the relevant Noteholders, as the case may be, but, in lieu
thereof to deliver or procure delivery of the Entitlement or make payment of the Final Redemption Amount on the Maturity Date to the relevant Noteholders, as the case may be. Notification of such election will be given to Noteholders in accordance
with Condition 14.

 Schedule 9 to 

Agency Agreement 

PROVISION FOR MEETINGS OF NOTEHOLDERS 

1. Terms used, but not otherwise defined in this Schedule shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Amended and Restated Agency
Agreement (as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time) dated July 22, 2010 among Bank of America Corporation, as issuer, Bank of America, N.A., London Branch as principal agent, and Merrill Lynch International Bank Limited as
transfer agent and registrar in respect of Registered Notes (the “Agency Agreement”). As used in this Schedule, the following expressions shall have the following meanings, unless the context otherwise requires: 

(i) “voting certificate” shall mean an English language certificate issued by a Paying Agent and dated in which it is stated:

 (a) that on the date thereof Bearer Notes (not being Notes in respect of which a block voting instruction has
been issued and is outstanding in respect of the meeting specified in such voting certificate and any adjourned such meeting) bearing specified serial numbers were deposited with such Paying Agent or (to the satisfaction of such Paying Agent) were
held to its order or under its control and that no such Bearer Notes will cease to be so deposited or held until the first to occur of: 
  

	 	(1)	the conclusion of the meeting specified in such certificate or, if applicable, any adjourned such meeting; and 

 

	 	(2)	the surrender of the certificate to the Paying Agent who issues the same; 

(b) that the bearer thereof is entitled to attend and vote at such meeting and any adjourned such meeting in respect of
the Bearer Notes represented by such certificate; 
 (ii) “block voting instruction” shall mean an English language
document issued by a Paying Agent and dated in which: 
 (a) it is certified that Bearer Notes (not being Notes
in respect of which a voting certificate has been issued and is outstanding in respect of the meeting specified in such block voting instruction and any adjourned such meeting) have been deposited with such Paying Agent or (to the satisfaction of
such Paying Agent) were held to its order or under its control and that no such Notes will cease to be so deposited or held until the first to occur of: 
  

	 	(1)	the conclusion of the meeting specified in such document or, if applicable, any adjourned such meeting; and 

 

	 	(2)	the surrender to the Paying Agent not less than 48 hours before the time for which such meeting or any adjourned such meeting is convened of the receipt issued by such
Paying Agent in respect of each such deposited Note which is to be released or (as the case may require) the Bearer Note or Bearer Notes ceasing with the agreement of the Paying Agent to the Issuer in accordance with paragraph 17 hereof of the
necessary amendment to the block voting instruction; 

 (b) it is certified that each holder of
such Bearer Notes has instructed such Paying Agent that the vote(s) attributable to the Bearer Note or Bearer Notes so deposited or held should be cast in a particular way in relation to the resolution or resolutions to be put to such meeting or any
adjourned such meeting and that all such instructions are during the period commencing 48 hours prior to the time for which such meeting or any adjourned such meeting is convened and ending at the conclusion or adjournment thereof neither revocable
nor capable of amendment; 
  

 77 

 (c) the total number and (in the case only of Bearer Definitive Notes) the
serial numbers of the Bearer Notes so deposited or held are listed distinguishing with regard to each such resolution between those in respect of which instructions have been so given that the votes attributable thereto should be cast against the
resolution; and 
 (d) one or more persons (who need not be Noteholders) named in such document (each hereinafter
called a “Proxy” and together the “Proxies”) is or are authorized and instructed by such Paying Agent to cast the votes attributable to the Notes so listed in accordance with the instructions referred to in paragraph
(c) above as set out in such document. 
 The holder of any voting certificate or the Proxies named in any block voting
instruction shall for all purposes in connection with the relevant meeting or adjourned meeting of Noteholders be deemed to be the holder of the Bearer Notes to which such voting certificate or block voting instruction related and the Paying Agent
with which such Bearer Notes have been deposited or the person holding the same to the order or under the control of such Paying Agent shall be deemed for such purposes not to be the holder of those Notes. 

(iii) References herein to the “Notes” are to the Notes in respect of which the relevant meeting is convened. 

2. A holder of a Registered Note may, by an instrument in writing in the form available from the specified office of a Transfer Agent in
the English language executed by or on behalf of the holder and delivered to the Transfer Agent at least 24 hours before the time fixed for a meeting, appoint a Proxy to act on such holders’ behalf in connection with that meeting. A Proxy need
not be a Noteholder. A corporation which holds a Registered Note may by delivering to a Transfer Agent at least 24 hours before the time fixed for a meeting a certified copy of a resolution of its directions or other governing body (with, if it is
not in English, a certified translation into English) authorize any person to act as its representative in connection with that meeting. 

3. The Principal Agent may at any time and, upon a requisition in writing of Noteholders holding not less than 33% in principal amount of
the Notes for the time being outstanding, shall convene a meeting of the Noteholders and if the Principal Agent makes default for a period of seven days in convening such a meeting the same may be convened by the Issuer or the requisitionists.
Whenever the Principal Agent is about to convene any such meeting it shall forthwith give notice in writing to the Issuer and the Dealers of the day, time and place thereof and of the nature of the business to be transacted thereat. Every such
meeting shall be held at such time and place in the City of New York or London as the Principal Agent may approve. 
 4. Notice
of every meeting of Noteholders shall be published on behalf and at the expense of the Issuer in accordance with Condition 14. Such notice shall set forth the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at
such meeting, and shall be published at least twice, the first publication to be not less than 21 nor more than 180 calendar days prior to the date fixed for the meeting. Such notice shall include a statement to the effect that Notes may be
deposited with Paying Agents for the purpose of obtaining voting certificates or appointing Proxies not less than 24 hours before the time fixed for the meeting or that, in the case of corporations, they may appoint representatives by resolution of
their directors or other governing body. A copy of the notice shall be sent by post to the Issuer (unless the meeting is convened by the Issuer). 

5. In case at any time the Issuer or the holders of at least 33% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding shall have
requested the Principal Agent to call a meeting of Noteholders, by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Principal Agent shall not have given the first notice of such meeting
within 21 calendar days after receipt of such request or shall not thereafter proceed to cause the meeting to be held as provided herein, then the Issuer or Noteholders of Notes in the amount above specified may determine the time and the place in
either of the locations designated in paragraph 3 hereof for such meeting and may call such meeting by giving notice thereof as provided in paragraph 4 hereof. 

6. Any person (who may but need not be a Noteholder) nominated in writing by the Issuer shall be entitled to the chair at every such
meeting but if no such nomination is made or if at any meeting the person nominated shall not be present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting the Noteholders present shall choose one of their number to be Chairman. To
be entitled to vote at any meeting of Noteholders, a 
  

 78 

 
person shall be (i) a Noteholder of one or more Notes, or (ii) a Proxy. The only persons who shall be entitled to be present or to speak at any meeting of Noteholders shall be the
persons entitled to vote at such meeting and their counsel and any representatives of the Principal Agent and its counsel and any representatives of the Issuer and its counsel. 

7. At any such meeting, one or more persons present holding Notes or voting certificates or being Proxies and holding or representing in
the aggregate not less than 5% in principal amount of the Notes shall (except for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution) form a quorum for the transaction of business and no business (other than the choosing of a Chairman) shall be
transacted at any meeting unless the requisite quorum be present at the commencement of business. The quorum at any such meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall (subject as provided below) be one or more persons present holding Notes
or voting certificates or being Proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate more than 50% in principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding, provided that, at any meeting the business of which includes any of the
following matters (each of which shall only be capable of being effected after having been approved by an Extraordinary Resolution) namely: 
  

	 	(i)	modification of the Maturity Date or, as the case may be, redemption month of the Notes or reduction or cancellation of the principal amount payable upon maturity; or

  

	 	(ii)	reduction or cancellation of the amount payable or modification of the payment date in respect of any interest in respect of the Notes or variation of the method of
calculating the Rate of Interest (if applicable) in respect of the Notes; or 

  

	 	(iii)	reduction of any Minimum Interest Rate and/or Maximum Interest Rate specified in the applicable Final Terms of any Floating Rate Note; or 

 

	 	(iv)	modification of the currency in which payment under the Notes and/or any Coupons appertaining thereto are to be made; or 

 

	 	(v)	modification of the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution; or 

 

	 	(vi)	the sanctioning of any such scheme or proposal as is described in paragraph 20(F) below; or 

 

	 	(vii)	alteration of this proviso or the proviso to paragraph 8 below; 

the quorum shall be one or more persons present holding Notes or voting certificates or being Proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate not
less than two-thirds in principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. An Extraordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the holders of Notes will be binding on all holders of Notes whether or not they are present at the meeting,
and on all holders of Coupons appertaining to such Notes. 
 8. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the time
appointed for any such meeting, the meeting shall, if convened at the request of the Noteholders (as provided in paragraph 5 hereof), be dissolved. In any other case, the meeting shall be adjourned for a period of not less than 10 calendar days as
determined by the chairman of the meeting prior to the adjournment of such adjourned meeting. Notice of the reconvening of any adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in paragraph 4 hereof except that such notice need be published only once but
must be given not less than five calendar days prior to the date on which the meeting is scheduled to be reconvened. Subject to the foregoing, at the reconvening of any meeting adjourned for a lack of a quorum the persons entitled to vote 33% in
principal amount of the Notes shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. Notice of the reconvening of an adjourned meeting shall state expressly the percentage of the aggregate principal
amount of the Notes that shall constitute a quorum. At a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly reconvened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid, any resolution and all matters (except as limited by Condition 15) shall be effectively passed
and decided if passed or decided by the persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented and voting at such meeting, provided that such amount shall be not less than 33% in principal amount of the Notes outstanding.
Any Noteholder who has 
  

 79 

 
executed and delivered an instrument in writing appointing a person as his Proxy shall be deemed to be present for the purposes of determining a quorum and be deemed to have voted;
provided, however, that such Noteholder shall be considered as present or voting only with respect to the matters covered by such instrument in writing. Any resolution effectively passed or decision taken at any meeting of the
Noteholders duly held in accordance with this paragraph 8 shall be binding on all Noteholders whether or not present or represented at the meeting and whether or not notation of such decision is made upon the Notes. 

9. Notice of any adjourned meeting at which an Extraordinary Resolution is to be submitted shall be given in the same manner as notice of
an original meeting but as if 10 were substituted for 21 in paragraph 4 above and such notice shall (except in cases where the proviso to paragraph 6 above shall apply when it shall state the relevant quorum) state that one or more persons present
holding Notes or voting certificates or being Proxies at the adjournment meeting whatever the principal amount of the Notes held or represented by them will form a quorum. Subject as aforesaid it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an
adjourned meeting. 
 10. Every question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands and in
case of equality of votes the Chairman shall both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) to which he may be entitled as a Noteholder or as a holder of a voting certificate or as a Proxy.

 11. At any meeting, unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the results of the show of hands) demanded by the
Chairman or the Issuer or by one or more persons present holding Notes or voting certificates or being Proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than two percent in principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding, a
declaration by the Chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes
recorded in favor of or against such resolution. 
 12. Subject to paragraph 14 below, if at any such meeting a poll is so
demanded it shall be taken in such manner and subject as hereinafter provided either at once or after an adjournment as the Chairman directs and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was
demanded as at the date of the asking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuance of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the motion on which the poll has been demanded. 

13. The Chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) any such meeting adjourn the same from time to time and from place to
place but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting except business which might lawfully (but for lack of required quorum) have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. 

14. Any poll demanded at any such meeting on the election of a Chairman or on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting
without adjournment. 
 15. Any director or officer of the Issuer and its lawyers and other professional advisers may attend and
speak at any meeting. Save as aforesaid, but without prejudice to the proviso to the definition of “outstanding” in sub-clause 1(b) of the Agency Agreement, no person shall be entitled to attend and speak nor shall any person be entitled
to vote at any meeting of the Noteholders or join with others in requisitioning the convening of such a meeting unless he either produces the Note or Notes of which he is the holder or a voting certificate or is a Proxy. Neither the Issuer nor any
of its subsidiaries shall be entitled to vote at any meeting in respect of Notes held by it for the benefit of any such company and no other person shall be entitled to vote at any meeting in respect of Notes held by it for the benefit of any such
company. Nothing herein contained shall prevent any of the Proxies named in any block voting instruction from being a director, officer or representative of or otherwise connected with the Issuer. 

16. Subject as provided in paragraph 15 hereof at any meeting: 

(A) on a show of hands every person who is present in person and produces a Note or voting certificate or is a Proxy shall have one vote;
and 
  

 80 

 (B) on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of: 

(i) in the case of a meeting of the holders of Notes all of which are denominated in a single currency, each minimum
integral amount of such currency; and 
 (ii) in the case of a meeting of the holders of Notes denominated in
more than one currency, each U.S. $1.00 or, in the case of a Note denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, the equivalent of U.S. $l.00 in such currency at the Principal Agent’s spot buying rate for the relevant currency against U.S.
Dollars at or about 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the date of publication of the notice of the relevant meeting (or of the original meeting of which such meeting is an adjournment), or such other amount as the Principal Agent shall in its absolute
discretion stipulate in principal amount of Notes so produced or represented by the voting certificate so produced or in respect of which he is a Proxy. 

Without prejudice to the obligation of the Proxies named in any block voting instructions, any person entitled to more than one vote need
not use all his votes or cast all the votes to which he is entitled in the same way. 
 17. Each block voting instruction
together (if so requested by the Issuer) with proof satisfactory to the Issuer of its due execution on behalf of the relevant Paying Agent shall be deposited at such place as the Principal Agent shall approve not less than 24 hours before the time
appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the Proxies named in the block voting instruction propose to vote and in default the block voting instruction shall not be treated as valid unless the Chairman of the meeting decides
otherwise before such meeting or adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A certified copy of each block voting instruction shall be deposited with the Principal Agent before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting, but the Principal
Agent shall not thereby be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity of or the authority of the Proxies named in any such block voting instruction. 

18. Any vote given in accordance with the terms of a block voting instruction shall be valid notwithstanding the previous revocation or
amendment of the block voting instruction or of any of the Noteholders’ instructions pursuant to which it was executed, provided that no intimation in writing of such revocation or amendment shall have been received from the
relevant Paying Agent by the Issuer at its registered office (or such other place as may have been approved by the Principal Agent of the purpose) by the time being 24 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at
which the block voting instruction is to be used. 
 19. A meeting of the Noteholders shall, in addition to the powers
hereinbefore given, have the following powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution (subject to the provisions relating to quorum contained in paragraphs 7 and 8 above) only namely: 

(A) Power to sanction any compromise or arrangement proposed to be made between the Issuer and the Noteholders, the Receiptholders (if
applicable) and the Couponholders (if applicable) or any of them. 
 (B) Power to sanction any abrogation, modification,
compromise or arrangement in respect of the rights of the Noteholders, the Receiptholders (if applicable) and the Couponholders (if applicable) against the Issuer or against any of its property whether such rights shall arise under this Agreement,
the Notes, the Receipts (if applicable), the Coupons (if applicable) or otherwise. 
 (C) Power to assent to any modification of
the provisions contained in this Agreement or the Terms and Conditions, the Notes, the Receipts (if applicable) or the Coupons (if applicable) which shall be proposed by the Issuer. 

(D) Power to give any authority or sanction which under the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes is required to be given by
Extraordinary Resolution. 
 (E) Power to appoint any persons (whether Noteholders or not) as a committee or committees to
represent the interest of the Noteholders and to confer upon such committee or committees any powers or descriptions which the Noteholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution. 

 

 81 

 (F) Power to sanction any scheme or proposal for the exchange or sale of the Notes for, or
the conversion of the Notes into or the cancellation of the Notes in consideration of, shares, stock, notes, bonds, debentures, debenture stock and/or other obligations and/or securities of the Issuer or any other company formed or to be formed, or
for or into or in consideration of cash, or partly for or into or in consideration of such shares, stock, notes, bonds, debentures, debenture stock and/or other obligations and/or securities as aforesaid and partly for or into or in consideration of
cash. 
 (G) Power to approve the substitution of any entity in place of the Issuer (or any previous substitute) as the
principal debtor in respect of the Notes, the Receipts (if applicable) and the Coupons (if applicable). 
 20. Any resolution
passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with the Agency Agreement shall be binding upon all the Noteholders whether present or not present at such meeting and whether or not voting and upon all Receiptholders (if
applicable) and Couponholders (if applicable) and each of them shall be bound to give effect thereto accordingly and the passing of any such resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances justify the passing thereof. Notice of the
result of the voting on any resolution duly considered by the Noteholders shall be published in accordance with Condition 14 by the Issuer within 14 calendar days of such result being known, provided that the non-publication of such
notice shall not invalidate such resolution. 
 21. The expression “Extraordinary Resolution” when used in this
Agreement or the Terms and Conditions means a resolution passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with the provisions herein contained by a majority consisting of not less than 66-2/3% of the votes given on such
poll. 
 22. Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every such meeting aforesaid if purporting to be signed by the
Chairman of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or proceedings had shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein contained and until the contrary is proved every such meeting in respect of the proceedings of which minutes have
been made shall be deemed to have been duly held and convened and all resolutions passed or proceedings had thereat to have been duly passed or had. 

23. The vote upon any resolution submitted to any meeting of Noteholders shall be by written ballots on which shall be subscribed the
signatures of Noteholders or of their representatives by Proxy (and the serial number or numbers of the Notes held or represented by them). The permanent chairperson of the meeting shall appoint two inspectors of votes who shall count all votes cast
at the meeting for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in triplicate of all votes cast at the meeting. A record, at least in triplicate, of the proceedings of each
meeting of Noteholders shall be prepared by the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more persons having
knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that said notice was published as provided in paragraph 3 hereof and, if applicable, paragraph 8 hereof. Each copy shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of
the chairperson and secretary of the meeting, and one such copy shall be delivered to the Issuer and another to the Principal Agent to be preserved by the Principal Agent, the copy delivered to the Principal Agent to have attached thereto the
ballots voted at the meeting. Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 

24. Subject to all the provisions contained herein the Principal Agent may without the consent of the Issuer, the Noteholders or the
Couponholders (if applicable) prescribe such further regulations regarding the requisition and/or the holding of meetings of Noteholders and attendance and voting thereat as the Principal Agent may in its sole discretion think fit.

Agency Agreement 

FORM OF 

CALCULATION AGENCY AGREEMENT 

THIS CALCULATION AGENCY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, is made as of

 (A) BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the
“Issuer”); and 
 (B) [—] (the “Calculation Agent”, which
expression shall include its successor or successors as calculation agent hereunder). 
 WHEREAS: 

(C) The Issuer has entered into an Amended and Restated Program Agreement (the “Program Agreement”) dated as of July 25,
2008, as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, under which the Issuer may issue Euro Medium-Term Notes (the “Notes”). The Issuer and the Dealers may amend, restate, and/or supplement the Program Agreement from time to
time in order to, inter alia, increase the aggregate principal amount of Notes that the Issuer may have outstanding at any one time under the Program. 

(D) The Notes will be issued subject to and with the benefit of an Amended and Restated Agency Agreement (the “Agency
Agreement”) dated as of July 22, 2010, as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time and entered into among the Issuer, Bank of America, N.A., London Branch, as Principal Agent (the “Principal Agent” which expression

NOW IT IS HEREBY AGREED that: 
  

	1.	Appointment of the Calculation Agent 

(1) The Issuer hereby appoints [—] as Calculation Agent, and the Calculation Agent
hereby accepts such appointment, in respect of each relevant Series of Notes (the “Relevant Notes”) for the purposes set out in Clause 2 below, all upon the terms set forth herein. The agreement of the parties hereto that this Agreement is
to apply to a specific Series of Relevant Notes shall be evidenced by the naming of the Calculation Agent as such in the applicable Final Terms. As used herein, “Series” means a Tranche of Notes, together with any further Tranche or
Tranches of Notes which are (i) expressed to be consolidated and form a single series and (ii) are identical in all respects (including as to listing) except for the date on which such Notes will be issued (the “Issue Date”), for
interest bearing Notes, the date from which such Notes bear interest (if different from the Issue Date) and/or the price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Notes) at which such Notes will be issued. As used herein,
“Tranche” means Notes (whether global or definitive form or both) which are identical in all respects (including as to listing). 

(2) The appointment of the Calculation Agent shall continue as the Program may be amended from time to time until terminated in

 86 

 (2) Without prejudice to Clause 2(1), the Calculation Agent promptly shall notify (and

Payment Date, and Entitlement, or other amounts, rates and dates which it is obliged to determine or calculate under the Terms and Conditions, as soon as practicable after the determination thereof, and in any event no later than the tenth Business
Day, as defined in Clause 9(2) of the Agency Agreement, immediately preceding the date on which payment is to be made to the Principal Agent pursuant to Clause 9(1) of the Agency Agreement, and of any subsequent amendment thereto pursuant to the
Terms and Conditions. 
 (3) The Calculation Agent shall use its best efforts to cause each Rate of Interest, Interest Amount,
Interest Payment Date, and Entitlement, or other amounts, rates and dates which it is obliged to determine or calculate under the Terms and Conditions, to be published as required in accordance with the Terms and Conditions as soon as practicable
after their determination or calculation. 
 (4) If the Calculation Agent does not at any material time for any reason determine
and/or calculate and/or publish the Rate of Interest, Interest Amount and/or Interest Payment Date in respect of any Interest Period, and Entitlement, or any other amount, rate or date which it is obliged to determine or calculate under the Terms
and Conditions, it forthwith shall notify the Issuer and the Paying Agents of such fact. 
  

	3.	Fees 

 The Issuer will pay

for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), disbursements and advances incurred or made in accordance with any provision of this Agreement. If the Calculation Agent shall cease to be the Calculation
Agent hereunder, it shall repay to the Issuer the unearned portion, calculated on a pro rata basis, of its compensation. 
  

	4.	Indemnity 

 (1) The Issuer
shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Calculation Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees and agents against any losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands or expenses (including, but not limited to, all reasonable costs,
legal fees, charges and expenses paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which it may reasonably incur or which may be made against it as a result of or in connection with its appointment or the exercise of its powers and
duties under this Agreement except such as may result from its own willful default, negligence or bad faith or that of its officers, directors, agents or employees, or the material breach by it of the terms of this Agreement. 

(2) The Calculation Agent shall indemnify the Issuer and any of its directors, officers, employees and agents against any losses,
liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands or expenses (including, but not limited to, all reasonable costs, legal fees, charges and expenses paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which the Issuer may reasonably incur or
which may be made against the Issuer as a result of the Calculation Agent’s willful default, negligence or bad faith or that of its officers, directors, agents or employees or the material breach by it of the terms of this Agreement.

  

	5.	Conditions of Appointment 

(1) In acting hereunder and in connection with the Relevant Notes, the Calculation Agent shall act solely as agent of the Issuer and shall
not assume thereby any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the owners or holders of the Relevant Notes or the receipts or coupons (if any) appertaining thereto (the “Receipts” and the
“Coupons,” respectively). 
 (2) In relation to each issue of Relevant Notes, the Calculation Agent hereby undertakes
to the Issuer to perform such obligations and duties, and shall be obliged to perform such duties and only such duties as are herein and in the Terms and Conditions specifically set forth, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement or the Terms and Conditions against the Calculation Agent. If the Terms and Conditions are 
  

 87 

 
amended on or after a date on which the Calculation Agent accepts any appointment in a way which affects the duties expressed to be performed by the Calculation Agent, the Calculation Agent shall
not be obliged to perform such duties as so amended unless it has delivered to the Issuer its prior written consent to the relevant amendments. 

(3) The Calculation Agent may consult with legal and other professional advisers, and the written opinion of such advisers shall be full
and complete protection in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such advisers. 

(4) The Calculation Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered in
reliance upon any instruction, request or order from the Issuer or any notice, resolution, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement, or other paper or document which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been delivered,
signed or sent by the proper party or parties or upon written instructions from the Issuer or notification by any reference bank or other entity from which information is obtained for purposes of making the calculations required hereunder.

 (5) The Calculation Agent, and any of its officers, directors and employees, may become the owner of, or acquire any interest
in, any Notes, Receipts or Coupons (if any) with the same rights that it or he would have if the Calculation Agent were not appointed hereunder, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Issuer or any of its
Affiliates and may act on, or as depositary, trustee or agent for, any committee or body of holders of Notes or Coupons (if any) or in connection with any other obligations of the Issuer as freely as if the Calculation Agent were not appointed
hereunder. 
  

	6.	Termination of Appointment 

(1) The Issuer may terminate the appointment of the Calculation Agent at any time by giving to the Calculation Agent at least 45 calendar
days’ prior written notice to that effect, provided that, for so long as any of the Relevant Notes are outstanding: 

(a) such notice shall not expire less than 45 calendar days before any date upon which any payment is due in respect of
any Relevant Notes; and 
 (b) notice shall be given in accordance with Condition 14 to the holders of the
Relevant Notes at least 30 calendar days prior to any removal of the Calculation Agent; and 
 (c) upon giving
notice of the intended termination of the appointment of the Calculation Agent, the Issuer shall use all reasonable efforts to appoint a further financial institution of good standing as successor Calculation Agent. 

(2) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clause (1) above, if at any time: 

(a) the Calculation Agent becomes incapable of acting, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or files a voluntary petition
in bankruptcy or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment of an administrator, liquidator or administrative or other receiver of all or any substantial part of its property, or admits in writing its
inability to pay or meet its debts as they may mature or suspends payment thereof, or if any order of any court is entered approving any petition filed by or against it under the provisions of any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if a
receiver of it or of all or a substantial part of its property is appointed or if any officer takes charge or control of it or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or 

(b) the Calculation Agent fails duly to perform any function or duty imposed upon it by the Terms and Conditions and this
Agreement, 
 the Issuer may forthwith without notice terminate the appointment of the Calculation Agent, in which event notice thereof shall be
given to the holders of the Relevant Notes in accordance with Condition 14 as soon as practicable thereafter. 
  

 88 

 (3) The termination of the appointment pursuant to sub-clause (1) or (2) above of
the Calculation Agent hereunder shall not entitle the Calculation Agent to any amount by way of compensation but shall be without prejudice to any amount then accrued due.

written notice to that effect. Following receipt of a notice of resignation from the Calculation Agent, the Issuer promptly shall give notice thereof to the holders of the Relevant Notes in accordance with Condition 14. 

(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clauses (1), (2) and (4) above, so long as any of the Relevant Notes are outstanding,

appointed. The Issuer agrees with the Calculation Agent that if, by the day falling 10 calendar days before the expiration of any notice under sub-clause (1) or (4) above, the Issuer has not appointed a replacement Calculation Agent, the
Calculation Agent, on behalf of the Issuer, shall be entitled to appoint as a successor Calculation Agent in its place a reputable financial institution of good standing (acting through its principal London Office) which the Issuer shall approve
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 (6) Upon its appointment becoming effective, a successor
Calculation Agent shall without further act, deed or conveyance, become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of its predecessor with like effect as if originally named as the Calculation Agent
hereunder.

resignation of the Calculation Agent), the Calculation Agent shall on the day on which such termination takes effect deliver to the successor Calculation Agent all records concerning the Relevant Notes maintained by it (except such documents and
records as it is obliged by law or regulation to retain or not to release), but shall have no other duties or responsibilities hereunder. 

(8) Any entity into which the Calculation Agent may be merged or converted, or any entity with which the Calculation Agent may be
consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Calculation Agent shall be a party, or any entity to which the Calculation Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets,
on the date when such merger, consolidation or transfer becomes effective and to the extent permitted by any applicable laws, shall become the successor Calculation Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, unless otherwise required by the Issuer, and after the said effective date, all references in this Agreement to the Calculation Agent shall be deemed to be references to such entity. Written
notice of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or transfer forthwith shall be given to the Issuer and the Principal Agent. 
  

	7.	Communications

notice or communication given hereunder shall be sufficiently given or served: 
 (a) if delivered in person to
the relevant address specified on the signature pages hereof and, if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered at the time of receipt;

deemed to have been delivered at the time of receipt. 
  

 89

	8.	Descriptive Headings and Counterparts 

(1) The descriptive headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit the provisions hereof.

 (2) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the
same agreement. 
  

	9.	Governing Law and Jurisdiction 

(1) This Agreement is governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, notwithstanding any
otherwise applicable conflicts of law principles. 
 (2) The Issuer and the Calculation Agent each hereby irrevocably submit to
the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States federal court sitting in New York City, the Borough of Manhattan over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement (together, the “Proceedings”). The Issuer
and the Calculation Agent each irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may have to the laying of the venue of the Proceedings brought in such a court and any claim that the Proceedings have been brought in
an inconvenient forum. The Issuer and the Calculation Agent each agree that final judgment in the Proceedings brought in such a case may be enforced in any court in the jurisdiction to which the Issuer or the Calculation Agent is subject by a suit
upon such judgment, provided that the service of process is effected upon the Issuer and the Calculation Agent in the manner specified in sub-clause (3) below or as otherwise permitted by law. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF this Agreement has been entered into the day and year first above written.

Agency Agreement 

FORM OF 
 DELIVERY
AGENCY AGREEMENT 
 EURO MEDIUM-TERM NOTES PROGRAM 

THIS DELIVERY AGENCY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of [—], among: 

 

	 	1.	BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”); and 

 

	 	2.	[—] (the “Delivery Agent,” which expression shall include its successor or successors for the time being as
delivery agent hereunder). 

 WHEREAS: 

The Issuer proposes to issue from time to time notes (the “Notes”) in accordance with the terms of an Amended and Restated
Program Agreement dated June 25, 2008 (as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Program Agreement”) among the Issuer and the Dealers named therein or appointed thereunder, relating to the Issuer’s Euro
Medium-Term Note Program. 
 The Notes will be issued pursuant to, and will have the benefit of, an Amended and Restated Agency
Agreement dated July 22, 2010 (as amended, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Agency Agreement”) among the Issuer, Bank of America, N.A., London Branch, as Principal Agent, and Merrill Lynch International Bank
Limited, as Transfer Agent and Registrar in respect of Registered Notes. 
 The Issuer wishes to appoint the Delivery Agent as
delivery agent for the purpose of delivering to (or at the direction of) the holders of the Notes the relevant Entitlement in respect of each Series of Notes where specified in the relevant Final Terms (the “Physical Delivery Notes”), in
accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Notes set out in Schedule 6-1 of the Agency Agreement (including the applicable Product Annexes set out in Schedule 6-2 of the Agency Agreement) as amended and modified by the information set out in
the relevant Final Terms (together, the “Terms and Conditions”) as the Issuer and the Dealer(s) shall agree. 
 NOW IT IS HEREBY
AGREED that: 
  

	 	1.	Interpretation 

Expressions used and not defined in this Agreement shall, unless the context otherwise requires, have the meanings set forth in the Terms
and Conditions and the Program Agreement. 
  

	 	2.	Appointment of the Delivery Agent 

The Issuer hereby appoints the Delivery Agent as agent for the purposes of delivering to (or at the direction of) the holders of any
Physical Delivery Notes the relevant Entitlement to which such Physical Delivery Notes relate as are agreed between the Issuer and the Dealer(s) (and set forth in the Terms and Conditions). The Delivery Agent hereby accepts its appointment upon the
following terms and conditions. The agreement of the Issuer and the Delivery Agent that this Agreement is to apply to a specific Series of Physical Delivery Notes (the “Relevant Physical Delivery Notes”) shall be evidenced by the naming of
the Delivery Agent as such in the relevant Final Terms. As used herein, “Series” means a Tranche of Notes, together with any further Tranche or Tranches of Notes which are (i) expressed to be consolidated and form a single series and
(ii) are identical in all respects (including as to listing) except for the date on which such Notes will be issued (the “Issue Date”), for interest bearing Notes, the date from which such Notes bear interest (if different from the
Issue Date) and/or the price (expressed as a percentage or amount of the principal amount of the Notes) at which such Notes will be issued. As 

 

 92 

 
used herein “Tranche” means Notes (whether in global or definitive form or both) which are identical in all respects (including as to listing, if any).

delivered in connection with the delivery of the Entitlement pursuant to the Terms and Conditions) or otherwise at the reasonable instruction of the Issuer or its agents. All deliveries in respect of any Relevant Physical Delivery Notes shall be
made outside the United States and its possessions and shall not be made by transfer to an account at a bank, or delivered to an address, located inside the United States or its possessions. Terms used in the preceding sentence shall have the
meanings given to them by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and regulations thereunder. 

  

	 	(iii)	In no event will the Delivery Agent be required to perform any obligation under this Agreement unless the Issuer redeems such Relevant Physical Delivery Note in whole
or in part by delivery of the relevant Entitlement and the Issuer has delivered or caused to be delivered the relevant Underlying Assets to the Delivery Agent. 

 

	 	(iv)	The Delivery Agent shall notify the Agent of any Entitlement delivered to the holders of the Relevant Physical Delivery Note.

	 	4.	Expenses 

 The
Issuer will pay the compensation of the Delivery Agent at such rates as shall be agreed upon between the Issuer and the Delivery Agent from time to time. Upon receiving an accounting from the Delivery Agent, the Issuer also will pay the Delivery
Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), disbursements and advances incurred or made in accordance with any provision of this Agreement. If the Delivery Agent shall cease to be the Delivery

and duties under this Agreement except such as may result from 
  

 93 

 
its own willful default, gross negligence or bad faith or that of its officers, directors, agents or employees, or the material breach by it of the terms of this Agreement. 

The Delivery Agent shall indemnify the Issuer and any of its directors, officers, employees and agents against any losses, liabilities,
costs, claims, actions, demands or expenses (including, but not limited to, all reasonable costs, legal fees, charges and expenses paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which the Issuer may reasonably incur or which may be
made against the Issuer as a result of the Delivery Agent’s willful default, gross negligence or bad faith or that of its officers, directors, agents or employees or the material breach by it of the terms of this Agreement. 

 

	 	6.	Conditions of Appointment 

  

	 	(i)	In acting hereunder and in connection with the Relevant Physical Delivery Note, the Delivery Agent shall act solely as agent of the Issuer, and shall not assume thereby
any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the owners or holders of the Relevant Physical Delivery Note or the receipts or coupons (if any) appertaining thereto (the “Receipts” and the
“Coupons,” respectively). 

  

	 	(ii)	In relation to each issue of Relevant Physical Delivery Notes, the Delivery Agent hereby undertakes to the Issuer to perform such obligations and duties, and shall be
obliged to perform such duties and only such duties as are herein and in the Terms and Conditions specifically set forth, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or the Terms and Conditions against the Delivery Agent.
If the Terms and Conditions are amended on or after a date on which the Delivery Agent accepts any appointment in a way which affects the duties expressed to be performed by the Delivery Agent, the Delivery Agent shall not be obliged to perform such
duties as so amended unless it has delivered to the Issuer its prior written consent to the relevant amendment.

or order from the Issuer or any notice, resolution, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement, cable or other paper or document which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been delivered, signed or sent by the proper party or
parties or upon written instructions from the Issuer. 

  

	 	(v)	The Delivery Agent, and any of its officers, directors and employees, may become the owner of, or acquire any interest in, any Notes, Receipts or Coupons (if any) with
the same rights that it or he would have if the Delivery Agent were not appointed hereunder, and may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Issuer and any of its Affiliates, and may act on, or as depositary, trustee
or agent for, any committee or body of holders of Notes or Coupons (if any) or in connection with any other obligations of the Issuer and any of its Affiliates as freely as if the Delivery Agent were not appointed hereunder.

  

	 	7.	Termination of Appointment 

  

	 	(i)	The Issuer may terminate the appointment of the Delivery Agent at any time by giving to the Delivery Agent at least 45 calendar days’ prior written notice to that
effect, provided that, for so long as any of the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes are outstanding: 

  

 94 

	 	a.	such notice shall not expire less than 45 calendar days before any date upon which any payment is due in respect of any Relevant Physical Delivery Notes;

  

	 	b.	notice shall be given in accordance with Condition 14, as applicable, to the holders of the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes at least 30 calendar days prior to any
removal of the Delivery Agent; and 

  

	 	c.	upon giving notice of the intended termination of the appointment of the Delivery Agent, the Issuer shall use all reasonable efforts to appoint a further financial
institution of good standing as successor Delivery Agent. 

  

	 	(ii)	Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clause (i) above, if at any time: 

 

	 	a.	the Delivery Agent becomes incapable of acting, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or makes an assignment for the benefit
of its creditors or consents to the appointment of an administrator, liquidator or administrative or other receiver of all or any substantial part of its property, or admits in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they may mature or
suspends payment thereof, or if any order of any court is entered approving any petition filed by or against it under the provisions of any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if a receiver of it or of all or a substantial part of its
property is appointed or if any officer takes charge or control of it or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation; or 

 

	 	b.	the Delivery Agent fails duly to perform any function or duty imposed upon it by the Terms and Conditions and this Agreement, 

the Issuer may forthwith, without notice, terminate the appointment of the Delivery Agent, in which event notice thereof shall be given to
the holders of the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes by the Issuer in accordance with Condition 14, as soon as practicable thereafter. 
  

	 	(iii)	The termination of the appointment pursuant to sub-clause (i) or (ii) above of the Delivery Agent hereunder shall not entitle the Delivery Agent to any amount
by way of compensation, but shall be without prejudice to any amount then accrued due. 

  

	 	(iv)	The Delivery Agent may resign its appointment hereunder at any time by giving to the Issuer at least 90 calendar days’ prior written notice to that effect.
Following receipt of a notice of resignation from the Delivery Agent, the Issuer promptly shall give notice thereof to the holders of the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes in accordance with Condition 14. 

 

	 	(v)	Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) above, so long as any of the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes are outstanding, the
termination of the appointment of the Delivery Agent (whether by the Issuer or by the resignation of the Delivery Agent) shall not be effective unless upon the expiration of the relevant notice, a successor Delivery Agent has been appointed by the
Issuer. The Issuer agrees with the Delivery Agent that if, by the day falling 10 calendar days before the expiration of any notice under sub-clause (i) or (iv) above, the Issuer has not appointed a replacement Delivery Agent, the Delivery
Agent, on behalf of the Issuer, shall be entitled to appoint as a successor Delivery Agent in its place a reputable financial institution of good standing (acting through its principal London office) which the Issuer shall approve (such approval not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

  

 95 

	 	(vi)	Upon its appointment becoming effective, a successor Delivery Agent shall, without further act, deed or conveyance, become vested with all the authority, rights,
powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of its predecessor with like effect as if originally named as the Delivery Agent hereunder. 

  

	 	(vii)	If the appointment of the Delivery Agent hereunder is terminated (whether by the Issuer or by the resignation of the Delivery Agent), the Delivery Agent shall, on the
day on which such termination takes effect, deliver to the successor Delivery Agent all records concerning the Relevant Physical Delivery Notes maintained by it (except such documents and records as it is obliged by law or regulation to retain or
not to release), but shall have no other duties or responsibilities hereunder. 

  

	 	(viii)	Any entity into which the Delivery Agent may be merged or converted, or any entity with which the Delivery Agent may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Delivery Agent shall be a party, or any entity to which the Delivery Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets, on the date when such merger, consolidation or
transfer becomes effective and to the extent permitted by any applicable laws, shall become the successor Delivery Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
unless otherwise required by the Issuer, and after the said effective date, all references in this Agreement to the Delivery Agent shall be deemed to be references to such entity. Written notice of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or
transfer forthwith shall be given to the Issuer and the Principal Agent by the Delivery Agent.

principles. 

  

 96 

	 	(ii)	The Issuer and the Delivery Agent each hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States federal court sitting in New York City, the

Proceedings brought in such a case may be enforced in any court in the jurisdiction to which the Issuer or the Delivery Agent is subject by a suit upon such judgment, provided that the service of process is effected upon the Issuer as permitted by
law.

 Schedule 14 to 

Agency Agreement 

REGULATIONS CONCERNING THE TRANSFER AND REGISTRATION OF NOTES IN REGISTERED FORM 

These provisions are applicable separately to each Series of Notes. 

1. Each Registered Certificate shall represent an integral number of Registered Notes. 

2. Unless otherwise requested by the holder and agreed by the relevant Issuer and save as provided in the Terms and Conditions, each holder of more than
one Registered Note shall be entitled to receive only one Registered Certificate in respect of its holding. 
 3. Unless otherwise requested by
the joint holders and agreed by the relevant Issuer and save as provided in the Terms and Conditions, the joint holders of one or more Registered Notes shall be entitled to receive only one Registered Certificate in respect of their joint holding
which shall, except where they otherwise direct, be delivered to the joint holder whose name appears first in the register of the holders of Registered Notes in respect of the joint holding. All references to “Noteholder”,
“Transferor” and “Transferee” shall include joint holders, transferors and transferees. 
 4. The executors or
administrators of a deceased holder of Registered Notes (not being one of several joint holders) and, in the case of the death of one or more of joint holders, the survivor or survivors of such joint holders shall be the only persons recognised by
the relevant Issuer as having any title to such Registered Notes. 
 5. Any person becoming entitled to Registered Notes in consequence of the
death or bankruptcy of the holder of such Registered Notes may, upon producing such evidence that such person holds the position in respect of which that person proposes to act under this paragraph or of his title as the Transfer Agent or the
Registrar shall require (including legal opinions), be registered as the holder of such Registered Notes or, subject to the preceding paragraphs as to transfer, may transfer such Registered Notes. The Issuer, the Transfer Agent and the Registrar may
retain any amount payable upon the Registered Notes to which any person is so entitled until such person shall be so registered or shall duly transfer the Registered Notes. 

6. The Registered Note(s) are transferable by execution of the form of transfer at Schedule 15 of the Amended and Restated Agency Agreement dated of
July 22, 2010, as amended, restated, and/or supplemented from time to time, and entered into among the Issuer, Bank of America N.A., London Branch and Merrill Lynch International Bank Limited (the “Agency Agreement”) under the hand of
the Transferor or, where the Transferor is a corporation or other entity, either under its common seal or under the hand of two of its officers duly authorized in writing. In each case, the form of transfer must be duly completed and executed and
duly stamped (where applicable) and must be accompanied by the Registered Certificate in respect of such Registered Note and such documents, evidence and information as may be required pursuant to the Terms and Conditions and such other evidence as
the Issuer, the Registrar or the Transfer Agent may reasonably require to prove the title of the Transferor or the Transferor’s right to transfer the Registered Note(s) and, if the form of transfer is executed by some other person on the
Transferor’s behalf or in the case of the execution of a form of transfer on behalf of a corporation by its officers, the authority of that person or those persons to do so. In the case of a transfer of part only of a holding of Registered
Notes represented by one Registered Certificate to a person who is already a holder of Registered Notes, the Registrar shall only issue a new Registered Certificate representing the enlarged holding against surrender of the existing Registered
Certificate, and a further new Registered Certificate in respect of the balance of the holding not transferred shall be issued to the Transferor. 

7. All transfers of, and exercises of options relating to and deliveries of Registered Certificates representing, Registered Notes shall be made in
accordance with the Terms and Conditions. 
 8. Without prejudice to any applicable restrictions on transfer, upon acceptance for transfer of an
interest in Notes evidenced by a Registered Global Certificate for individual Registered Definitive Certificates as provided herein, the Registrar shall record the entries in the Register in respect of the Registered Notes accordingly. 

 

 102 

 All capitalized terms used in this Schedule 14 shall have the meanings given to them in the Agency
Agreement.
