Section 1.04(c) (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this Section 1.04(c) shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by
Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this Section 1.04(c), the Company, at its own expense, shall cause

Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this Section 1.04(d) shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a
record date has previously been set pursuant to this Section 1.04(d) (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this Section 1.04(d) shall
be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this
Section 1.04(d), the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the
relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 

  
 15 

 (e) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section with
respect to the Securities of a series, the party or parties hereto which set such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided
that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party or parties hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06,
on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be designated later than the 180th day after the applicable record date and, if an Expiration Date is not designated, with respect to any record
date set pursuant to this Section, the party or parties hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto.

therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other Act is made upon such Security. 
 Section 1.05. Notices, etc., to Trustee and
Company. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or record of an Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, the Trustee

Security affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice given
to the Holder of a Global Security shall be sufficiently given if such notice is given to such Holder through the Depository, in accordance with the Depository’s applicable procedures from time to time. 

(b) Any notice which is given in the manner provided in this Section 1.06 shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given or provided, whether or not such Holder actually receives the notice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any case where notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail as provided by this Section 1.06, neither the
failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular
mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

  
 16 

 (c) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders of Securities shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

hereof modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

Manhattan, The City of New York arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture, but for that purpose only, and agrees that service of process upon said Authorized Agent shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process
upon it in any such suit or proceeding in any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York. Such appointment shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Securities remain Outstanding until the appointment of
a successor by the Company and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment. Upon such acceptance, the Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of such successor. The Company further agrees to take any and all action,
including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of said Authorized Agent in full force and effect so long as any of the Securities shall be
Outstanding. The Trustee shall not be obligated and shall have no responsibility with respect to any failure by the Company to take any such action. 

(b) Except as provided in Section 1.16(c), the Company hereby irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture, and
irrevocably waives, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any such suit or proceeding. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Securities or this Indenture, the Spanish courts shall have exclusive
jurisdiction in respect of any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture arising out of, relating to or in connection with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (a “Bail-in Dispute”) and accordingly each of the Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial owner of any Securities and each Paying Agent,
transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar submits, to the extent it may effectively do so, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Spanish courts in relation to any Bail-in Dispute. Each of the
Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial owner of any Securities and each Paying Agent, transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar further irrevocably waives, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection to the
Spanish courts on the grounds that they are an inconvenient or inappropriate forum in respect of any Bail-in Dispute. 

Section 1.17. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND EACH HOLDER AND BENEFICIAL OWNER OF A SECURITY
BY ITS ACCEPTANCE THEREOF HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES OR ANY TRANSACTION RELATED HERETO OR THERETO TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.” 
 (b)    The second paragraph of Section 3.01 of the Original
Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“With respect to any Securities to be authenticated and delivered hereunder, there shall be established or issued in or pursuant to a
Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of any Securities of a series the applicable terms of such Securities, including the following (in each case,
where applicable),” 

  
 18 

 (c)    Section 3.01(r) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with
respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“(r) (reserved);” 

(d)    Section 3.01(w) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not
apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“(w) any other terms of such Securities which the Company may establish;” 

(e)    Section 3.03 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. Securities shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by one of the representatives of the Company entitled to do so by Board Resolution or by any member of the Board of Directors. The signature of any of these authorized representatives on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities,
executed by the Company, to the Trustee for authentication and, provided that the Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities referred to in Section 3.01 and a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof and of such Securities shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust
Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, 
 (a) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that: 

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

(iii) such Securities have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company; and 

(iv) this Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; and 

(b) an Officer’s Certificate stating that, to the best knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, no event which
is, or after notice or lapse of time would become, an Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing. 

If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of
Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate at the time of issuance of each Security, but 

  
 19 

 
such opinion and certificate, with appropriate modifications, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series. After any such first delivery, any
separate request by the Company that the Trustee authenticates Securities of such series for original issue will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to authentication
and delivery of such Securities continue to have been complied with. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or
to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise be in a
manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.02 or 6.13 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers or by the Authenticating
Agent. Such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold
by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder
and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.” 
 (f)    Section 3.11 of the Original Indenture
shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 3.11. [Reserved]” 

(g)    Section 4.01 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

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

(i) either 

(A) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (y) Securities of such series which
have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (z) Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the
Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, and
the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the 

  
 20 

 
Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, including the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Securities, to the date of such deposit; 

(ii) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Outstanding
Securities of such series; and 
 (iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with. 

(b) In addition, upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to a
series of Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the Securities of such series or such Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be
deemed satisfied and discharged as to such series of Securities and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(c) In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to Securities of such series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. 

(d) Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities, the obligations
of the Company to the Trustee under Sections 6.06 and 6.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (a)(i) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Sections 3.05, 3.06 and the
last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive.” 
 (h)    Sections 4.02, 4.03 and 4.04 and 4.05 of the
Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following, respectively: 

“Section 4.02. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.03. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.04. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.05. [Reserved].” 

(i)    Article 5 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and
shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 
 “ARTICLE 5
 
 REMEDIES 

Section 5.01. Event of Default. “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to
Securities of any series, means (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body) that, except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 5.01, an order shall have been made by any competent court commencing insolvency proceedings (procedimiento concursal) against the
Company or an order of any competent court or administrative agency shall have been made or a resolution shall have been passed by the Company for the dissolution or winding up of the Company (except (i) in the case of a

  
 21 

 
reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger carried out in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 8.01 (in this case, even without being approved by an Act of the
Holders of the Securities of such series) or (ii) in any such case for the purpose of a reconstruction or a consolidation or an amalgamation or a merger which has been approved by an Act of the Holders of the Securities of such series). 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, any Resolution or Early Intervention with respect to the Company shall
not, in and of itself and without regard to any other fact or circumstance, constitute a default or an Event of Default under the immediately preceding paragraph or under any other provision of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any
series. In addition, neither (i) a reduction or cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as
a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor (ii) the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of any series, shall constitute an Event of Default or default under this Indenture or the Securities of any series or
otherwise constitute non-performance of a contractual obligation, or entitle the Holders of the Securities of any such series to any remedies, which are hereby expressly waived. In addition, no repayment or
payment of Amounts Due on the Securities of any series shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent
that, such amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the principal, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of such Outstanding Securities or Security, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to have been declared, and shall become, immediately and automatically, due and payable. For the avoidance of doubt, only an Event of Default (rather than any breach or default under the Indenture or the Securities of any series) may give
rise to a declaration of acceleration pursuant to this Section 5.02. 
 (b) At any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to Securities or Security, as the case may be, of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, may by Act, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

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

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

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

(C) to the extent that payment of such interest or Additional Amounts is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of any
interest and Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and 
 (D) all sums paid
or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.07; and 

(ii) all Event(s) of Default with respect to Securities of such series shall have been cured or waived as provided in
Section 5.13. 

  
 22 

 (c) No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.
(a) The Company covenants that if: 
 (i) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any
Additional Amounts with respect to any Security when such interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 21 days, or 

(ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security at its Maturity and such default is not
remedied, in the case of a default in the payment of the principal, within 14 days and, in the case of a default in the payment of any premium, within 30 days, 

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

(b) If the Company fails to pay the money it is required to pay the Trustee pursuant to the preceding paragraph forthwith upon
the demand of the Trustee, the Trustee, acting upon an Act of the Holders of Securities of such series or in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the money so due and unpaid, and
may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, and collect the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 
 (c) If an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the
Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or such Securities or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or therein, or to
enforce any other proper remedy. 
 No remedy against the Company other than as provided in this Article 5 shall be available
to the Holders, whether for the recovery of amounts owing to the Holders in respect of the Securities of any series or under this Indenture or in respect of any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the
Securities of any series or under this Indenture. 
 Section 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. (a) In
case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other similar judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property
of the Company or such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee
shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any overdue principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such
series, of the principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel and of the Holders of Securities) allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

  
 23 

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

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

Section 5.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be
applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal, or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation
thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of all
amounts due to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 6.07; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then
due and unpaid upon the Securities for principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the
aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts, respectively; 

THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company or any other Person or Persons entitled thereto. 

Section 5.07. Limitations on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

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

  
 24 

 (iii) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (iv) no direction inconsistent with such written
request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing
of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or
to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and any Premium, Interest and Additional
Amounts. Except as set forth in the immediately following paragraph, notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture and in any Security, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of, any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities therefor specified in such Security (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder, except that Holders of not less than 75% in
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of a series may consent by Act, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to the postponement of the Stated Maturity of any installment of interest for a period not exceeding
three years from the original Stated Maturity of such installment (which original Stated Maturity shall have been fixed, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment). 

The Securities of any series may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in
Power, and no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Company in connection with or arising out of any such exercise. No repayment or payment of Amounts Due on the Securities of any series will become due and payable or be paid after
the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such
exercise. 
 Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the
Company, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder
shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted, to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

Section 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Subject to the limitations on remedies provided for in the last
paragraph of Section 5.03, except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to each and every Holder of a Security is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not, subject as aforesaid, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any
other appropriate right or remedy, to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

  
 25 

 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission
of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, except as
otherwise provided in applicable law. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to any Holder of a Security may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by such Holder,
as the case may be. 
 Section 5.12. Control by Holders of Securities. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of the relevant series, by Act, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 
 (i) such direction shall not be in conflict
with any rule of law or with this Indenture or with the Securities of any series, 
 (ii) the Trustee may take any other
action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
 (iii) such direction is not unduly
prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of Securities of such series not joining in such action. 

Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. (a) Subject to Section 5.02(b)(i)(D), the Holders of not less than
a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series may, by Act, waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a
default: 
 (i) in the payment of the principal of or any premium, or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect
to, any Security of such series, or 
 (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
 (b) Upon any
such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom (if applicable) shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of
any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and
may assess reasonable costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such
an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.” 
 (j)    Sections 6.02(e),
6.02(f) and 6.02(g) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following provisions, respectively:

 “(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by or pursuant to
this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 

  
 26 

 (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation or inquiry into
(i) the performance of the Company of any of its covenants set forth in this Indenture and (ii) the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order,
bond, debenture, other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or
investigation, it shall be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable notice, the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; provided that the Trustee shall not be entitled to such information
which the Company is prevented from disclosing as a matter of law or contract;

shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers
of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the best interest of the Holders of Securities of such series. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after

(l)    Section 6.04 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply

“Section 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. (a) The Company agrees: 

(i) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by the Trustee hereunder as
agreed between the Company and the Trustee (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may be attributable to the Trustee’s negligence or bad faith; and 
 (iii) to indemnify the Trustee (which
for the purposes of this Section 6.07(a)(iii) shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents acting on behalf of the Trustee) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (other than taxes based upon,
measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent that any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad
faith. 
 The Trustee shall notify the Company in writing of the commencement of any action or claim in respect of which
indemnification may be sought promptly after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of such commencement (provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect the Trustee’s rights hereunder) and the Company shall be
entitled to participate therein. The Trustee shall not be authorized to settle a claim without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(b) As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior

(c) Any compensation or expense incurred by the Trustee after a default specified by Section 5.01 is intended to
constitute an expense of administration under any then applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law. “Trustee” for purposes of this Section 6.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee but the negligence or bad faith of any Trustee shall not
affect the rights of any other Trustee under this Section 6.07. The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination or, if applicable, the satisfaction or discharge, of this
Indenture including any termination under any bankruptcy law and (without prejudice to Section 15.02 of this Indenture if, and to the extent applicable, as set out therein) any exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities of any series.

expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. 

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, any and all amounts due and owing to the Trustee under this Section 6.07 shall be payable
within 6 (six) days of the date on which the Trustee can demand payment hereunder for purposes of this Indenture and for purposes of Article 42(1)(e) and Article 46 of Law 11/2015.” 

(o)    Article 8 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and
shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 
 “ARTICLE
8 
 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALES; ASSUMPTION;
SUBSTITUTION AND MODIFICATION 
 Section 8.01. Company May Consolidate,
etc. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent any reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company with or into any other Person or Persons (whether or not affiliated with the Company), or
successive reconstructions, consolidations, amalgamations or mergers in which the Company or the successor or successors of the Company shall be a party or parties, or shall prevent any sale, transfer, conveyance or lease of the property of the
Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, to any other Person (whether or not affiliated with the Company); provided that any Person formed by any reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, or any transferee or
lessee of the Company’s assets shall expressly (except where such assumption is automatic by operation of law) assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on all
Securities in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed. 

Upon any such assumption, the acquiring, resulting or successor Person shall succeed to, and substitute, and may exercise every
right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with respect to any such Securities with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Company in this Indenture, and the Company or any legal and valid successor Person which shall
theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed herein, shall be released from all liability as obligor and any other obligations and covenants under this Indenture and under any such Securities, as the case may be. 

Section 8.02. Non-Spanish Successor Person. In the event of any
reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance or lease permitted by Section 8.01 and Section 5.01 above or any assumption of obligations permitted by Section 8.03 where the acquiring, resulting or
successor Person is not incorporated or tax resident in the Kingdom of Spain, Additional Amounts under the Securities will thereafter be payable in respect of taxes imposed by such acquiring, resulting or successor Person’s jurisdiction of
incorporation or tax residence (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to the obligation to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 in respect of taxes imposed by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain) rather than taxes
imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. Additional Amounts with respect to payments of interest or principal due prior to the date of such reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance, lease or assumption will be payable
only in respect of taxes imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. If the acquiring, resulting or successor Person is not incorporated or tax resident in the Kingdom of Spain, it will also be 

  
 29 

 
entitled to redeem the Securities in the circumstances described in Section 11.08(a), except that (i) references to the Kingdom of Spain shall be deemed to refer to such acquiring,
resulting or successor Person’s jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence, and (ii) the relevant change, amendment, application or interpretation must become effective subsequent to the date of any reconstruction, consolidation,
amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance or lease permitted by Section 8.01 and Section 5.01 or the assumption of obligations permitted by Section 8.03, as the case may be. 

Section 8.03. Assumption of Obligations. With respect to the Securities of any series, unless otherwise specified
in accordance with Section 3.01, any holding company of the Company or any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (for purposes of this Section 8.03 only, a “successor entity”) may without the consent of any Holder assume
the obligations of the Company (or of any Person which shall have previously assumed the obligations of the Company) for the due and punctual payment of the principal, interest, Additional Amounts and premium (if any) on any series of Securities in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture and such series of Securities on the part of the Company to be performed or observed, provided that: 

(a) the successor entity shall, except where such assumption is automatic by operation of law, expressly assume such
obligations by an amendment to this Indenture, executed by the Company and such successor entity, if applicable, and delivered to the Trustee, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee; 

(b) immediately after giving effect to such assumption of obligations, no Event of Default and no event which, after notice or
lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (c) the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such assumption complies with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such assumption have been complied with;
and 
 (d) immediately prior to such assumption, the successor entity shall have ratings for long-term senior debt assigned
by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or their respective successors) which are the same as, or higher than, the credit rating for long-term senior debt of the Company (or, if applicable, the
previous successor entity) assigned by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or their respective successors). 

Upon any such assumption, the successor entity shall succeed to, and substitute, and may exercise every right and power of, the
Company under this Indenture with respect to any such Securities with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named as the Company in this Indenture, and the Company or any legal and valid successor Person which shall theretofore have
become such in the manner prescribed herein, shall be released from all liability as obligor and any other obligations and covenants under this Indenture and under any such Securities, as the case may be. 

Section 8.04. Substitution and Modification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture (including
Article 9 hereof), if an Eligible Liabilities Event occurs and is continuing, the Company may substitute all (but not less than all) of the Securities of any series or modify the terms of all (but not less than all) of the Securities of such series,
without the consent or approval of the Holders or beneficial owners of the Securities of such series, so that such Securities are substituted by, or their terms are modified to, become again, or remain, Qualifying Securities, subject to:
(i) having given not less than 30 nor more than 90 days’ notice to the Holders of such series in accordance with Section 1.06 and to the Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date for substitution or, as
applicable, modification), (ii) the prior consent of the Regulator if required pursuant to Applicable Banking Regulations, and (iii) any variation in the terms of the Securities resulting from such modification or, if the Securities are
substituted, any difference between the terms of such Securities and those of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, not being materially prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such Securities and the Company
having delivered an 

  
 30 

 
Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee to that effect not less than five Business Days prior to (a) in the case of a substitution of the Securities, the issue date of the relevant
Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted or (b) in the case of a modification of the terms and conditions of the Securities, the date such modification becomes effective. 

For the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph, in the case of a modification of the terms and conditions of the
Securities, any variation in the ranking of the relevant Securities as set out in Section 13.01 resulting from any such modification or, in the case of a substitution of the Securities, any difference between the ranking of such Securities as
set out in Section 13.01 and that of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, shall be deemed not to be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such Securities where the ranking of the Securities or, if the
Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, following such substitution or modification, as the case may be, is at least the same ranking as was applicable to such Securities under
Section 13.01 on the issue date of such Securities. 
 For the purposes of the second immediately preceding paragraph,
the notice to be delivered by the Company shall specify the relevant details of the manner in which the relevant substitution or modification shall take effect and where the Holders of such series can inspect or obtain copies of the new terms and
conditions of the Securities of such series or, if such Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted. Such substitution or modification will be effected without any cost or charge to such Holders.

 If the Securities of a series are substituted in accordance with this Section 8.04, such Securities shall cease to
bear interest from (and including) the date of substitution thereof. 
 Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of
any series shall, by virtue of its acquisition of the Securities of any series or any beneficial interest therein, be deemed to acknowledge, accept, consent to and agree to be bound by any substitution of or modification to the terms of the
Securities of such series as set forth in this Section 8.04 and to grant to the Company and the Trustee full power and authority to take any action and/or to execute and deliver any document in the name and/or on behalf of such Holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, which is necessary or convenient to complete the substitution of or modification to the terms of the Securities of such series, as applicable. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of any series, by
virtue of its acquisition of the Securities of any series or any beneficial interest therein, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee and/or the Company for, agrees
not to initiate a suit against the Trustee and/or the Company in respect of, and agrees that neither the Trustee nor the Company shall be liable for, any action that the Trustee or the Company takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in
connection with the substitution of or modification to the terms of the Securities upon the occurrence of an Eligible Liabilities Event.” 

(p)    Article 9 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and
shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:

“ARTICLE 10 

COVENANTS 

Section 10.01. Payment of Principal and Any Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts. The Company covenants
and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of each series that it will (subject to the provisions of Section 3.07, Article 13 and Article 15) duly and punctually pay the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any
Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities of such series in accordance with, and except as provided in, the terms thereof and this Indenture. 

Section 10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series
of Securities an Office or Agency where Securities of such series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the
Company in respect of the Securities of such series relating thereto and this Indenture may be served. 
 The Company may
also from time to time designate one or more other Offices or Agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however,
that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an Office or Agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other Office or Agency. The Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each 

  
 34 

 
series the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10286, United States, for purposes of such
Office or Agency. Pursuant to Section 3.01(h), the Company may subsequently appoint a place or places in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York where such Securities may be payable. The Company initially appoints The Bank of New York
Mellon, London Branch, as Paying Agent and transfer agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its corporate trust office in New York, as the Security Registrar. 

Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, if and so long as the Securities of
any series (i) are denominated in a Foreign Currency or (ii) may be payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long as it is required under any other provision of this Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of
Securities, or as so required, at least one exchange rate agent. 
 Section 10.03. Money for Securities Payments to
Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as the Company’s Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it shall, on or before each due date for payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or Additional
Amounts with respect to, any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the
Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due until such sums
shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it shall, on or prior to each due date
for payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Securities of such series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum (in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless such Paying
Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. The obligation of the Company to pay any such amount shall be satisfied upon the deposit referred to in this paragraph. Receipt of the relevant
sum by the Paying Agent (other than the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) shall discharge the Company’s obligations in respect of the relevant payment. 

The Company shall cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) to execute and
deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent shall: 

(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture; 

(ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the
making of any payment of principal, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such series; and 

(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time and for any purpose pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent;
and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 

  
 35 

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

Section 10.04. Additional Amounts. The provisions of this Section 10.04 shall be applicable to the Securities
of each series except as specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution creating such series of Securities or in the Officer’s Certificate for such series of Securities. Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Company hereby further agrees that any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each Security shall be paid without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever
nature (“Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event any such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied in respect of payment of interest (but not principal or premium) by or on behalf of the
Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, the Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by the Holder of such
Security under this Indenture, after such withholding or deduction, shall equal the amount of interest, if any, which would have been receivable by such Holder in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the
foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 
 (a) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is
liable for such Taxes by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner of the Security for whose benefit such Holder holds such Security) having some connection with the Kingdom of Spain other than the mere holding of the Security (or such
beneficial interest) or the mere crediting of the Security to its securities account with the relevant Depository; 
 (b) in
the case of a Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date (as defined below) except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the same for
payment on such thirtieth day assuming that day to have been a Business Day in such place of presentment; 
 (c) in respect
of any Tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure by the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the
nationality, residence or 

  
 36 

 
identity of the Holder or beneficial owner of that Security, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the Kingdom of Spain or of any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein as a precondition to reduction of or relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 

(d) in respect of any Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be
able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Security to another Paying Agent; 
 (e) to, or to a
third party on behalf of, a Holder if the Company does not receive any relevant information as may be required by Spanish tax laws and regulations (including any binding rulings), including a duly executed and completed Payment Statement from the
Paying Agent; or 
 (f) in the event that the Securities are redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) hereof. 

Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary,
partnership, limited liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the
income, for Spanish tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional
Amounts had it been a Holder of such Security. 
 No Additional Amounts will be paid by the Company, the Trustee or any
Paying Agent on account of any withholding or deduction from a payment on, or in respect of, the Securities where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections
1471-1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and the Kingdom of Spain or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA,
or any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted or issued in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement. 

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

Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of interest on, or in respect of, any Security of
any series, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in
respect thereof pursuant to such terms, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is
not made. 
 Section 10.05. Statement as to Default. For so long as any Securities of any series are Outstanding,
the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of its fiscal years ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate, complying with Section 314(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, from one or more authorized representatives
of the Company, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of the signer or signers thereof, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Indenture (such compliance
to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder). 

  
 37 

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

Section 10.07. Waiver of Certain Covenants. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for
Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b) or
Section 9.01(c) for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series or any term, provision or condition set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or
affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.” 
 (r)    Article 11 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety
with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“ARTICLE 11 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Securities of any series at the option of the Company as
permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article. In addition, any such redemption shall be in compliance
with the Applicable Banking Regulations and, if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator. 

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

Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Securities of any series
with the same interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such
series not previously called for redemption, by lot and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount (or in the 

  
 38 

 
case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of Securities of such series; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the
principal amount (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of a Security of such series not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein or pursuant hereto.

 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of
Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 

Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in
Section 1.06, not less than 30 nor more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the
manner herein provided to the Holder of any Securities designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or
portion thereof. 
 Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Securities in the manner herein provided shall be
conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder actually receives the notice. 
 All notices of
redemption shall state: 
 (i) the Redemption Date, 

(ii) the Redemption Price, 

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

(iv) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and
after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denomination, containing identical terms and provisions, for the principal amount
thereof remaining unredeemed, 
 (v) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon
each such Security or portion thereof to be redeemed, and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(vi) the place or places where such Securities maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts pertaining thereto, and 
 (vii) the CUSIP number or the
Euroclear Bank. S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, reference number of such Securities, if any (or any other numbers used by a Depository to identify such Securities). 

Except as otherwise provided herein, notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 1.06 need not identify
particular Securities to be redeemed. 

  
 39 

 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 

If the Company has elected to redeem the Securities of any series but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to Holders
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to such series of Securities, the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force
and effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under this Article 11) will be due and payable. 

Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or
with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an
Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, and Additional Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 

Section 11.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the
Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest)
such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with
any accrued interest and Additional Amounts to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities,
or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates therefor according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any
premium, until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

Section 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered
at any Office or Agency for such Security (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and
provisions, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Global Security is so surrendered, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the U.S. Depository or other Depository for such Global Security as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, without service charge, a new
Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered. 

Section 11.08. Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons. (a) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of
any series, all or part of the Securities of any series may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 at the option of the Company if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or
regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof 

  
 40 

 
or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective
on or after the issue date of the Securities of such series, (i) the Company would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the Securities with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or other
governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Company would
not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on such series of Securities or the value of such deduction to the Company would be
reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, in the case of (i) above, no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to
the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Securities then due. 

Prior to any notice of redemption of such Securities pursuant to Section 11.04, the Company shall provide the Trustee with
(i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the
Company to redeem such Securities pursuant to this Section have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding paragraph prevail. 

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, if the Securities of a series are not listed on an organized
market in an OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to the applicable first Interest Payment Date on the Securities of such series, the Company may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice (ending on a day which is
no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders of Securities of such series of Securities in accordance with Section 11.04 (which notice will be irrevocable), redeem all (but not less than
all) of the Securities of such series at the Redemption Price; provided that from and including the issue date of such Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain
such listing, as applicable. 
 Section 11.09. Redemption for Eligible Liabilities Event. Unless otherwise
provided in the Securities of any series, all (but not less than all) of the Securities of any series may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 at the option of the Company if an Eligible Liabilities
Event occurs on or after the issue date of such Securities. 
 Prior to any notice of redemption of such Securities pursuant
to Section 11.04, the Company shall provide the Trustee with (i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of
circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company to redeem such Securities pursuant to this Section 11.09 have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the circumstances referred to
in the preceding paragraph prevail.”

RANKING OF SECURITIES 

Section 13.01. Ranking of the Securities. The Securities shall be direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and
unsecured obligations of the Company and, upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the Insolvency Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights in the Kingdom of Spain (including, without limitation, Additional Provision 14.2 of Law 11/2015), but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a result of any mandatory provision of law (or otherwise), the payment
obligations of the Company under the Securities with respect to claims for principal (which claims will constitute ordinary claims) will rank: 

(i) junior to any (a) privileged claims (créditos privilegiados) (which shall include, among other claims,
any claims in respect of deposits for the purposes of Additional Provision 14.1 of Law 11/2015), and (b) claims against the insolvency estate (créditos contra la masa); 

(ii) pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves and with all other Senior Preferred Obligations;
and 
 (iii) senior to (a) any Senior Non-Preferred Obligations, and
(b) all subordinated obligations of, or claims against, the Company (créditos subordinados), present and future, 
 such
that any claim for principal in respect of the Securities will be satisfied, as appropriate, only to the extent that all claims ranking senior to it have first been satisfied in full, and then pro rata with any claims ranking pari passu with
it, in each case as provided above. 
 Upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company, in accordance with
and to the extent permitted by the Insolvency Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in Spain, but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a result of any mandatory provision of law
(or otherwise), the payment obligations of the Company under the Securities of any series with respect to claims for accrued but unpaid interest on such Securities shall constitute subordinated claims (créditos subordinados) against
the Company ranking in accordance with the provisions of the Insolvency Law. No further interest on the Securities of any series shall accrue from the date of declaration of the insolvency of the Company.  

Prior to any voluntary or necessary declaration of insolvency of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or
mandatory liquidation of the Company or similar procedure, the Company may be subject to an Early Intervention or Resolution or to any other exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power and the Securities of any
series may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power, in which case no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Company in connection with or arising out of any such exercise of
the Spanish Bail-in Power. 
 Section 13.02. Waiver of Right of Set-Off. Subject to applicable law, neither any Holder or beneficial owner of the Securities of any series nor the Trustee acting on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of such series may exercise, claim or
plead any right of set-off, compensation or retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Company in respect of, or arising under, or in connection with,

  
 42 

 
the Securities of such series or this Indenture and each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of such series, by virtue of its holding of any Securities of such series or any interest
therein, and the Trustee acting on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of such series, shall be deemed to have waived all such rights of set-off, compensation or retention. If, notwithstanding the above,
any amounts due and payable to any Holder or beneficial owner of a Security of any series or any interest therein by the Company in respect of, or arising under, the Securities of such series are discharged by
set-off, such Holder or beneficial owner shall, subject to applicable law, immediately pay an amount equal to the amount of such discharge to the Company (or, if any voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the
Company shall have occurred, the liquidator or administrator of the Company, as the case may be) and, until such time as payment is made, shall hold an amount equal to such amount in trust (where possible) or otherwise for the Company (or the
liquidator or administrator of the Company, as the case may be) and, accordingly, any such discharge shall be deemed not to have taken place. 

Section 13.03. Trustee to Effectuate Ranking. Each Holder and beneficial owner of a Security by his acceptance
thereof, to the extent permitted by Spanish law, authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the ranking of the Securities provided in this Article 13 and appoints the Trustee
his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, if required, to grant any private or public documents on such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s
behalf. 
 Section 13.04. Rights of Trustee as Creditor of Senior Preferred Obligations; Preservation of
Trustee’s Rights. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 13 with respect to any claims of creditors of Senior Preferred Obligations
which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other creditor of Senior Preferred Obligations, and nothing in this Indenture or the Trust Indenture Act shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 

Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.07. 

 Section 13.05. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. At all times when a Paying Agent other than the Trustee
shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 13 shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent
within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article 13 in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 13.04 shall not apply to the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.”

EXERCISE OF SPANISH BAIL-IN POWER 

Section 15.01. Agreement with Respect to the Exercise of Spanish Bail-in
Power. (a) Notwithstanding any other term of the Securities of any series, the Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder of the Securities of any series, by its acquisition of the
Securities of any series, each Holder (which, for the purposes of this Article 15, includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities of any series) acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to be bound by: (i) the exercise and
effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, which may be imposed with or without any prior notice with respect to the Securities of any series, and may include and result
in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (a) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series; (b) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities
of any series into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of any such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment, modification or
variation of the terms of the Securities; (c) the cancellation of the Securities of any series; (d) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Securities of any series or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the
Securities of any series, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (ii) the variation of the terms of the Securities of any series or the rights of the Holders thereunder or
under the Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority. 

(b) By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that neither a reduction or
cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority with respect to the Securities of a series shall: (i) give rise to a default or event of default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Defaults) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust
Indenture Act; or (ii) be a default or an Event of Default with respect to the Securities or under this Indenture. By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder further acknowledges and agrees that no repayment or payment of
Amounts Due on the Securities of any series shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such
amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 
 (c) By its acquisition
of the Securities of any series, each Holder, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and
agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of such series. Additionally, by its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of such series: (i) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders with respect
to any portion of the Securities of such series that is written down, converted to equity and/or cancelled under Section 5.12 of this Indenture; and (ii) this Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect
to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of a series, so long as any Securities of such series remain Outstanding, there shall at all times be a trustee for the
Securities of such series in accordance with the Indenture, and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee shall continue to be governed by this Indenture, including to the extent no additional
supplemental indenture or amendment is agreed upon in the event the Securities of such series remain Outstanding following the completion of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power. 

  
 44 

 (d) By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder shall be
deemed to have authorized, directed and requested the relevant Depository (including, if applicable, The Depository Trust Company) and any direct participant therein or other intermediary through which it holds such Securities to take any and all
necessary actions, if required, to implement the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder.

 (e) Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of any series, the Company or the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (as the case may be) shall provide a written notice to the Depository as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the
Spanish Bail-in Power for purposes of notifying the Holders of such Securities. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. 

(f) If the Company has elected to redeem the Securities of any series but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to
Holders the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to such series of Securities the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of
no force and effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under Article 11) will be due and payable. 

(g) Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to a series of
Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the Securities of such series or such Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed
satisfied and discharged as to such series of Securities and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(h) Each Holder that acquires Securities of any series in the secondary market or otherwise shall be deemed to acknowledge and
agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in this Indenture to the same extent as the Holders that acquire the Securities upon their initial issuance, including, without limitation, with respect to this Article 15. 

Section 15.02. BRRD Liabilities. Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of this Indenture or any
other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and the Trustee, the Trustee acknowledges and accepts that a BRRD Liability arising under this Indenture may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, and acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the exercise and effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority in relation to any BRRD Liability of the Company to the Trustee, which may be imposed with or without any prior notice and (without limitation) may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: 

(i) the reduction of all, or a portion, of such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts due thereon; 

(ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts due thereon into shares, other
securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person, and the issue to or conferral on the Trustee of any such shares, securities or obligations, including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of any BRRD
Liability; 
 (iii) the cancellation of such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts due thereon; and/or 

(iv) the amendment or alteration of any interest, if applicable, on such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts due thereon, and
the maturity or the dates on which any payments on such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts are due, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and 

  
 45 

 (b) the variation of the terms of such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts
due thereon and/or this Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority.

 The terms of this Article 15 shall survive the payment in full of the Securities, the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture with respect to any series of Securities (where such satisfaction or discharge is allowed by the terms of the relevant series of Securities), the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination for any reason of this
Indenture.” 
 (w)    The Table of Contents of the Original Indenture shall be amended to the extent necessary to
reflect the amendments to the Original Indenture made in this Article 2. 
 ARTICLE 3 

SP SECURITIES 

Section 3.01.    Creation of SP Securities. There is hereby created a new series of securities, the SP
Securities, to be issued under the Indenture. The SP Securities will be issued by means of the public deed of issuance executed on September 11, 2020 and registered with the Mercantile Registry of Vizcaya (Bizkaia) on September [16], 2020. 

Section 3.02.    Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount of SP Securities. The aggregate principal amount of
the SP Securities shall initially be limited to $1,200,000,000 (except for SP Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other SP Securities of such series pursuant to Sections 3.04,
3.05, 3.06, 9.05 or 11.07 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) or the terms of such SP Securities and except for any SP Securities that, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented
hereby), are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered thereunder). The Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of SP Securities, create and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions as the
previously issued SP Securities in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date, the original interest accrual date and/or the issue price), so that such further issue shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Outstanding
SP Securities; provided, however, that any such further issuance will only be made if either such additional securities are issued with no more than de minimis original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes or any
such further issuance is a “qualified reopening” as such term is defined under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-2(k)(3) promulgated under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. 
 Section 3.03.    Payment of Principal. The principal of the Outstanding SP Securities shall be
due and payable on the Stated Maturity Date. 
 Section 3.04.    Interest and Interest Rate.
(a) The SP Securities will bear interest from and including the Issue Date at an annual rate of 0.875%. 

(b)    The Issuer will pay interest in arrears on the SP Securities semi-annually on September 18 and March 18
of each year, commencing on March 18, 2021, up to, and including, the Stated Maturity Date (each an “Interest Payment Date”) or any date of earlier redemption. 

(c)    Interest on the SP Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months. Except as described below for the first Interest Payment Date, on each Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will pay interest on the SP Securities for the period commencing on and
including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date and ending on and including the day immediately preceding that Interest Payment Date. 

  
 46 

 (d)    On the first Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will pay interest
for the period beginning on and including the Issue Date to but excluding March 18, 2021. 
 (e)    If any Interest
Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related interest payment shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date.

 (f)    If the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption of any SP Security falls on a day that is not a
Business Day, payment of principal and interest on the applicable SP Security will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest will accrue for the period from and after such Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier
redemption. 
 (g)    Interest on each SP Security will be paid only to the Person in whose name such SP Security was
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for the applicable Interest Payment Date. 

Section 3.05.    Denominations, Minimum Purchase Amount. The SP Securities may be issued in minimum
denominations of $200,000 with increments of $200,000 thereafter. 
 Section 3.06.    Paying Agent.
(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, the Issuer hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon as the initial Paying Agent under the Indenture for the purpose of performing the functions of the Paying Agent with
respect to the SP Securities, and the Paying Agent hereby accepts such appointment. 
 (b)    The Paying Agent shall
exercise due care in performing the functions of the Paying Agent for the SP Securities. 
 (c)    The Issuer and the
Paying Agent shall, in connection with any Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date (other than a Redemption for Failure to List (as defined herein)), comply with the procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including the timely provision by the Paying
Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement to the Issuer. If the timely provision of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement is no longer necessary under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free and
clear of Spanish withholding tax or deduction on account of Spanish taxes, this Section 3.06(c) of this First Supplemental Indenture shall cease to be in effect and the Issuer and the Paying Agent shall no longer be required to comply with the
procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including the timely provision by the Paying Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement to the Issuer with respect to any Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date occurring on or after the date on
which the timely provision of such Payment Statement is no longer necessary under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free and clear of Spanish withholding tax or deduction on account of Spanish taxes. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Paying Agent shall not be liable for any amounts owed to any person due to its failure to properly comply with the procedures referred to in this Section 3.06(c) of this First Supplemental
Indenture except such as may result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Paying Agent or any of its agents or employees. 

(d)    So long as any principal amount of the SP Securities remains outstanding, the Issuer shall, insofar as it is
practicable, maintain, implement or arrange for the implementation of procedures to facilitate the timely provision by the Paying Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement in respect of the payments referred to in this
Section 3.06 of this First Supplemental Indenture under the SP Securities or the collection of any other documentation concerning the SP Securities that may be required under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free
and clear of Spanish withholding tax. 

  
 47 

 (e)    The Paying Agent accepts its obligations set forth herein, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, including the following, to all of which the Issuer agrees: 

(i)    The Paying Agent shall be entitled to such compensation as may be agreed in writing with the Issuer
for all services rendered by the Paying Agent, and the Issuer promises to pay such compensation and to reimburse the Paying Agent for the reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder upon receipt of such invoices as the Issuer shall reasonably require. The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Paying Agent
for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claims or expenses (including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability and excluding taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the
income of the Paying Agent) incurred by the Paying Agent that arises out of or in connection with its acting as Paying Agent hereunder, except such as may result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Paying Agent or any
of its agents or employees. The Paying Agent shall incur no liability and shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Issuer for, or in respect of, any actions taken, omitted to be taken or suffered to be taken in good faith by the Paying Agent in
reliance upon (A) the written opinion of counsel satisfactory to it and upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuer or (B) written instructions from the Issuer. 

The Paying Agent shall notify the Company in writing of the commencement of any action or claim in respect of which
indemnification may be sought promptly after any officer of the Trustee becomes aware of such commencement (provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect the Paying Agent’s rights hereunder) and the Company shall be
entitled to participate therein. The Paying Agent shall not be authorized to settle a claim without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(ii)    In acting under the Indenture and in connection with the SP Securities, the Paying Agent is acting
solely as agent of the Issuer and does not assume any obligations to, or relationship of agency or trust for or with, any of the Holders of such SP Securities. 

(iii)    The Paying Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action
taken or omitted to be taken or anything suffered by it in reliance upon the terms of the SP Securities, any notice, direction, certificate, affidavit, statement or other paper, document or communication reasonably believed by it to be genuine and
to have been approved or signed by the proper party or parties. 
 (iv)    Unless herein otherwise
specifically provided, any order, certificate, notice, request, direction or other communication from the Issuer made or given by it under any provision of the Indenture shall be sufficient if signed by any proper officer or an authorized person of
the Issuer. 
 (v)    The Paying Agent may, upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuer,
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and, except as otherwise provided herein, the Paying Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder. 
 (f)    (i) The Paying Agent may at any time resign as Paying Agent by giving written
notice to the Issuer of such intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become effective; provided, however, that such date shall not be earlier than 60 days after the receipt of such notice by the Issuer,
unless the Issuer agrees in writing to accept less notice. The Paying Agent may be removed (with or without cause) at any time by the filing with it of any instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer by any proper officer or an authorized
person thereof and specifying such removal and the date when it is intended to become effective, subject to the Company providing a copy of such notice to the Trustee. Such resignation or removal shall take effect only upon the date of the
appointment by the Issuer, as hereinafter provided, of a successor 

  
 48 

 
Paying Agent. If within 60 days after notice of resignation or removal has been given, a successor Paying Agent has not been appointed, the Paying Agent may petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint a successor Paying Agent. A successor Paying Agent shall be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer by any proper officer or an authorized person thereof and the successor Paying
Agent. Upon the appointment of a successor Paying Agent and acceptance by it of such appointment, the Paying Agent so superseded shall cease to be such Paying Agent hereunder. Upon its resignation or removal, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to
the payment by the Issuer of its compensation, if any is owed to it, for services rendered hereunder and to the reimbursement of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder. 
 (ii)    Any successor Paying Agent
appointed hereunder shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Issuer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Paying Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with
all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of such predecessor with like effect as if originally named as such Paying Agent hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then
unpaid, shall thereupon become obliged to transfer and deliver, and such successor Paying Agent shall be entitled to receive, copies of any relevant records maintained by such predecessor Paying Agent. 

(iii)    Any Person into which the Paying Agent may be merged or converted or with which the Paying Agent
may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Paying Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Paying Agent, or all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Paying Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law and provided that it shall have an established place of business in The City of New York, be the successor Paying Agent under the
Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. Notice of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or sale shall forthwith be given to the Issuer within 30 days of such merger,
conversion, consolidation or sale. 
 Section 3.07.    Security Certificates 

(a)    The SP Securities shall initially be represented by one or more global certificates (the “Global
Certificates”) substantially in the form of Exhibit A (attached hereto), which shall be deposited with a custodian for the Depository and the SP Securities represented thereby will be registered in the name of a nominee of the Depository
(initially Cede & Co.), for the accounts of participants in the Depository. 
 (b)    SP Securities represented
by a Global Certificate may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only: (i) by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, (ii) by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or to another nominee of the Depository, or
(iii) by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 

(c)    Beneficial interests in any SP Securities represented by a Global Certificate will be exchangeable for SP
Securities represented by definitive certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) only if: (i) the Depository notifies the Issuer in writing that it is unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue to act as Depository or that it has
ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, in either case, a successor Depository is not appointed by the Issuer within 60 days after the date of such notice from the Depository,
(ii) the Issuer notifies the Trustee in writing that it has reasonably elected to cause the issuance of SP Securities represented by Definitive Certificates or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with
respect to the SP Securities. 
 (d)    Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 3.07(c)(i),
(ii) or (iii) above, SP Securities represented by Definitive Certificates shall be (i) delivered by the Trustee in exchange for beneficial interest in SP Securities represented by Global Certificates and (ii) registered in such names,
and issued in such authorized denominations, as shall be requested by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with its customary procedures. 

  
 49 

 Section 3.08.    Redemption. (a) The provisions of Article
11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) will apply to the SP Securities. Any such redemption shall be in compliance with the Applicable Banking Regulations and, if required, the Issuer shall have obtained the prior consent
of the Regulator. The “Redemption Price” means, with respect to any SP Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby), an amount equal to 100% of their principal
amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The “Redemption Date” of any SP Securities to be redeemed will be any day fixed by the Issuer for redemption of such SP
Securities and specified in the applicable notice of redemption provided by the Issuer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby), provided, however, that in any case where the
Redemption Date shall not be a Business Day, then the SP Securities will not become due and payable and deposit of the Redemption Price will not be made on such Redemption Date, but the SP Securities will become due and payable and deposit of the
Redemption Price will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day with the same force and effect as if the SP Securities had become due and payable and the deposit of the Redemption Price had been made on the Redemption Date, and no
interest shall accrue on the amount payable on such Redemption Date or at such time for the period from and after such Redemption Date. 

(b)    All or part of the SP Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11
of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) at the option of the Issuer if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is
a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation
becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the SP Securities, (i) the Issuer would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the SP Securities with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or
other governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Issuer
would not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on the SP Securities or the value of such deduction to the Issuer would be
reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, in the case of (i) above, no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the
earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the SP Securities then due. 

(c)    If the SP Securities are not listed on an organized market in an OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to
the first Interest Payment Date, the Issuer may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice (ending on a day which is no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders in
accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) (which notice shall be irrevocable), redeem all (but not less than all) of the SP Securities at the Redemption Price (a “Redemption for
Failure to List”); provided that from and including the Issue Date of such SP Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain such listing, as applicable. In the event
of an early redemption of the SP Securities for the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, if required by the relevant Spanish laws or regulations (including any binding rulings), the Issuer will withhold tax and will pay interest in respect
of the principal amount of the SP Securities redeemed net of the Spanish withholding tax applicable to such payments. If this were to occur, the Issuer will not pay Additional Amounts. 

(d)    All (but not less than all) of the SP Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the
terms of Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) at the option of the Issuer if an Eligible Liabilities Event occurs on or after the Issue Date of the SP Securities. 

  
 50 

 Section 3.09.    Definitive Certificates and Authentication.
Any Definitive Certificates issued in exchange for beneficial interests in the SP Securities represented by Global Certificates pursuant to Section 3.07 of this First Supplemental Indenture or Section 2.03 of the Original Indenture (as
amended and supplemented hereby) shall be issued in the State of New York. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Indenture or the SP Securities, the SP Securities, irrespective of whether they are represented by Global Certificates or
Definitive Certificates, shall be issued and authenticated in New York. 
 Section 3.10.    Agreement with
Respect to the Exercise of Spanish Bail-in Power. (a) Notwithstanding any other term of the SP Securities, the Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between
the Company and any Holder, by its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder (which, for the purposes of this Section 3.10, includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the SP Securities) acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to
be bound by: (i) the exercise and effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, which may be imposed with or without any prior notice with respect to the SP
Securities, and may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (1) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities; (2) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the
Amounts Due on the SP Securities into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of any such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment,
modification or variation of the terms of the SP Securities; (3) the cancellation of the SP Securities; (4) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the SP Securities or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the SP
Securities, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (ii) the variation of the terms of the SP Securities or the rights of Holders thereunder or under the Indenture, as
deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority. 

(b)    By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that neither a reduction or
cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority with respect to the SP Securities shall: (i) give rise to a default or event of default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Defaults) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture
Act; or (ii) be a default or an Event of Default with respect to the SP Securities or under the Indenture. By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder further acknowledges and agrees that no repayment or payment of Amounts Due on the
SP Securities shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such amounts have been reduced,
converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 
 (c)    By its acquisition of the SP
Securities, each Holder, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee
shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority
with respect to the SP Securities. Additionally, by its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities: (i) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders with respect to any portion of the SP Securities that is written down, converted to equity and/or
cancelled under Section 5.12 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby); and (ii) the Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities, so long as any SP Securities remain Outstanding, there shall at all times be a trustee for the SP Securities in accordance with the Indenture, and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor trustee shall continue to be governed by the Indenture, including to the extent no additional supplemental indenture or amendment is agreed upon in the event the SP Securities remain Outstanding following the
completion of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power. 

  
 51 

 (d)    By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder shall be
deemed to have authorized, directed and requested the Depository and any direct participant therein or other intermediary through which it holds such SP Securities to take any and all necessary actions, if required, to implement the exercise of the
Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder. 

(e)    Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities, the Company or the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (as the case may be) shall provide a written notice to the Depository as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power for purposes of notifying the Holders of such SP Securities. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. 

(f)    If the Issuer has elected to redeem the SP Securities but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to Holders
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force and
effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby)) will be due and
payable. 
 (g)    Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect
to the SP Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or such SP Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed
satisfied and discharged as to such series of SP Securities and such SP Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(h)    Each Holder that acquires SP Securities in the secondary market or otherwise shall be deemed to acknowledge and
agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in this First Supplemental Indenture to the same extent as the Holders that acquire the SP Securities upon their initial issuance, including, without limitation, with respect to this
Section 3.10. 
 Section 3.11.    Notices. Any notice, communication or other document (other than a
notice, communication or other document delivered pursuant to the procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including a Payment Statement) required to be given to any person hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 1.05 of the Original
Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby). Any notice hereunder given by telephone, telecopy or letter shall be deemed to be received when in the ordinary course of transmission or post, as the case may be, it would be received. 

  
 52

Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed on its behalf as of the date first above written.

BANCO BILBAO VIZCAYA ARGENTARIA, S.A., a sociedad anónima organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain and having its

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SECURITIES 

1. General. (a) This security is one of a duly authorized issue of a series of debt securities of the Company, designated as its
BONOS SIMPLES PREFERENTES SEPTIEMBRE 2020-SEC5 (referred to as the “SP Securities”), limited to the aggregate principal amount of $1,200,000,000 (except as otherwise provided below) and issued or to be issued pursuant to an
Indenture (the “Base Indenture”) dated as of July 28, 2016 among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as trustee (together with any successor Trustee under the Indenture, the
“Trustee”), transfer agent and Paying Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Security Registrar, as amended and supplemented prior to the issuance hereof by a supplemental indenture dated September 18, 2020 among the Company and
The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as Trustee, transfer agent and Paying Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Security Registrar (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture (as amended and
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture), the “Indenture”). The terms and conditions of the Indenture shall have effect as if incorporated herein. All capitalized terms used in this SP Security but not otherwise defined
herein are used as defined in the Indenture and shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. References herein to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision of the Base Indenture shall refer to any such Article, Section or
other subdivision of the Base Indenture as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture. The holders of the SP Securities (each a “Holder”) will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have
notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the SP
Securities and of the terms upon which the SP Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

(b) The SP Securities are direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank in
accordance with paragraph 17 hereof. 
 (c) The SP Securities will initially be sold in the form of one or more global
certificates representing the securities of this series in fully registered form without interest coupons (each a “Global Security”) deposited with The Bank of New York Mellon as custodian for the Depository. The SP Securities will
not be issued in bearer form. The SP Securities, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 3.05 of the Base Indenture. Any person in whose name a SP Security shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law) be treated at all times, and for all purposes, by the Company and the Trustee as the absolute owner of such SP Security, regardless of any notice of ownership, theft or loss or of any writing thereon. 

2. Payments and Paying Agencies. (a) All payments on the SP Securities shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States
of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 
 (b) (i)
Principal of this SP Security and interest (including Additional Amounts) due at maturity will be payable against surrender of such SP Security at the office of the Paying Agent in New York City in immediately available funds by transfer to a U.S.
dollar account maintained by the registered Holder with, a bank located in the United States. 
 (ii) Payment of interest
(including Additional Amounts) on this SP Security will be made to the persons in whose name such SP Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date, which shall be the end of the
15th calendar day next preceding the date on which interest is to be paid whether or not such day is a Business Day, notwithstanding the cancellation of such SP Security upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior
to such Interest Payment Date. 
 Any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the SP Security which shall be payable, but
shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such SP Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the relevant Regular
Record Date 

  
 5 

 
by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (A) or (B) below: 

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

(c) Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of 12 30-day months. 
 3. Additional Amounts. Any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each
SP Security shall be paid without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever nature (“Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event any
such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied in respect of payment of interest (but not principal or premium) by or on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, the
Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by the Holder of such SP Security under the Indenture, after such withholding or deduction, shall equal the amount of interest, if any,
which would have been receivable by such Holder in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 

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

  
 6 

 (d) in respect of any SP Security presented for payment (where presentation
is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant SP Security to another Paying Agent; 

(e) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder if the Company does not receive any relevant information as may be required
by Spanish tax laws and regulations (including any binding rulings), including a duly executed and completed Payment Statement from the Paying Agent; or 

(f) in the event that the SP Security is redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Base Indenture. 

Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any SP Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary, partnership, limited
liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for Spanish tax
purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been a
Holder of such SP Security. 
 No Additional Amounts will be paid by the Company, the Trustee or any paying agent on account of any
withholding or deduction from a payment on, or in respect of, the SP Securities where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections 1471-1474 of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and the Kingdom of Spain or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA, or any law, regulation
or other official guidance enacted or issued in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement. 

For the purposes of (b) above, the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which such payment
first becomes due and payable, except that if the full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or before such due date, it means the first date on which the full amount of such moneys having been so received and
made available for payment to Holders, notice to that effect is duly given to the Holders in accordance with the Indenture. 
 4.
Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons; Redemption for Eligible Liabilities Event 
 (a) All or part of the SP Securities may be
redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Base Indenture at the option of the Company if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any
treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change,
amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective on or after September 18, 2020 (the Issue Date of the SP Securities), (i) the Company would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the SP Securities

thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Company would not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on the SP
Securities or the value of such deduction to the Company would be reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, (x) in the case of (i) above, no such notice to

to such payments. If this were to occur, the Company will not pay Additional Amounts. 
 (c) All (but not less than all) of the SP
Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Base Indenture at the option of the Company if an Eligible Liabilities Event (as defined herein) occurs on or after September 18, 2020 (the
Issue Date of the SP Securities); provided that, (i) the redemption shall be in compliance with the Applicable Banking Regulations, and (ii) if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator.

cancellation or suspension power existing from time to time under: (i) any law, regulation, rule or requirement applicable from time to time in the Kingdom of Spain, relating to the transposition or development of the BRRD, including, but not

all liability as obligor and any other obligations and covenants under the Indenture and under this SP Security, as the case may be. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding any other provision in this SP Security (including paragraph 8 below) or the Indenture, if an Eligible Liabilities Event occurs and is continuing, the Company may substitute all (but not less than all) of the SP Securities or modify
the terms of all (but not less than all) of the SP Securities, without the consent or approval of the Holders or beneficial owners of the SP Securities, so that the SP Securities are substituted by, or their terms are modified to, become again, or
remain, Qualifying Securities (as defined herein), subject to: (a) having given not less than 30 nor more than 90 days’ notice to the Holders of the SP Securities in accordance with Section 1.06 of the Base Indenture and to the
Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date for substitution or, as applicable, modification), (b) the prior consent of the Regulator, if required pursuant to Applicable Banking Regulations, and (c) any variation in
the terms of the SP Securities resulting from such modification or, if the SP Securities are substituted, any difference between the terms of such SP Securities and those of the Qualifying Securities by which such SP Securities are substituted, not
being materially prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such SP Securities and the Company having delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee to that effect not less than five Business Days prior to (i) in the case of a
substitution of the SP Securities, the issue date of the relevant Qualifying Securities by which such SP Securities are substituted or (ii) in the case of a modification of the terms and conditions of the SP Securities, the date such
modification becomes effective. 
 For the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph, in the case of a modification of the terms and
conditions of the SP Securities, any variation in the ranking of the relevant SP Securities as set out in paragraph 17 resulting from any such modification or, in the case of a substitution of the SP Securities, any difference between the ranking of
such SP Securities as set out in paragraph 17 and that of the Qualifying Securities by which such SP Securities are substituted, shall be deemed not to be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such SP Securities where the ranking of the SP
Securities or, if the SP Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such SP Securities are substituted, following such substitution or modification, as the case may be, is at least the same ranking as was applicable to such SP
Securities under paragraph 17 on the Issue Date of such SP Securities. 
 For the purposes of the second immediately preceding paragraph,
the notice to be delivered by the Company shall specify the relevant details of the manner in which the relevant substitution or modification shall take effect and where the Holders can inspect or obtain copies of the new terms and conditions of the
SP Securities or, if such SP Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such SP Securities are substituted. Such substitution or modification will be effected without any cost or charge to such Holders. 

If the SP Securities are substituted in accordance with this paragraph, such SP Securities shall cease to bear interest from (and including)
the date of substitution thereof. 
 Each Holder and beneficial owner of the SP Securities shall, by virtue of its acquisition of the SP
Securities or any beneficial interest therein, be deemed to acknowledge, accept, consent to and agree to be bound by any substitution of or modification to the terms of the SP Securities as set forth in this paragraph and to grant to the Company and
the Trustee full power and authority to take any action and/or to execute and deliver any document in the name and/or on behalf of such Holder or beneficial owner, as the case may be, which is necessary or convenient to complete the substitution of
or modification to the terms of the SP Securities, as applicable. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the SP Securities, by virtue of its acquisition of the SP Securities or any beneficial interest therein, to the extent permitted by the Trust
Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee and/or the Company for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee and/or the Company in respect of, and agrees that neither the Trustee nor the Company
shall be liable for, any action that the Trustee or the Company takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in connection with the substitution of or modification to the terms of the SP Securities upon the occurrence of an Eligible Liabilities
Event. 

  
 11 

 “Qualifying Securities” means, if this SP Security is subject to any
substitution or modification pursuant to this paragraph 7, at any time, any securities issued by the Company (including this SP Security when so modified so as to remain a Qualifying Security) that:

Applicable Banking Regulations, as applicable; 
 (ii) have the same denomination and aggregate outstanding principal amount, the same
currency in which payments shall be payable, the same rate of interest and terms for the determination of any applicable rate of interest, the same date of maturity and the same dates for payment of interest as this SP Security immediately prior to

 (iii) have the same or higher ranking as is applicable to this series of
SP Securities on the Issue Date of this series of SP Securities pursuant to paragraph 17; 
 (iv) preserve any existing rights under the SP
Security to any accrued interest which has not been paid in respect of the period from (and including) the Interest Payment Date last preceding the date of any substitution or modification pursuant to this paragraph 7; and 

(v) are listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange as selected by the Company, if this series of SP Securities were listed or
admitted to trading on a stock exchange immediately prior to the relevant substitution or modification pursuant to this paragraph 7. 
 8.
Modifications, Amendments and Waiver of Past Defaults. With the consent, as evidenced in an Act or Acts, as the case may be, of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the SP Securities at the time Outstanding,
modifications and amendments to the Indenture and hereto may be made by execution of a supplemental indenture for the purpose of adding, changing or eliminating any provisions or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the SP
Securities and of waiving future compliance with respect to the Indenture and the SP Securities; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each such SP Security affected thereby, 

(i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any premium or installment of interest on or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, any SP Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or the rate of interest thereon (except that Holders of not less than 75% in principal amount of Outstanding SP Securities of such series may consent by Act, on behalf of the
Holders of all of the Outstanding SP Securities of such series, to the postponement of the Stated Maturity of any installment of interest for a period not exceeding three years from the original Stated Maturity of such installment (which original
Stated Maturity shall have been fixed, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment)) or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof or otherwise, or change
the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 of the Base Indenture (except as contemplated by Section 3.07 of the Base Indenture and permitted by Section 9.01(a) of the Base Indenture), or reduce
the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Base Indenture or the amount thereof provable in
bankruptcy pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Base Indenture, or change the redemption provisions, or change the Place of Payment, Currency in which the principal of, any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to any SP
Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or with respect to any SP Security on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or

 (ii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding SP Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required

the requirements for a quorum or voting, or 
 (iii) modify any of the provisions of Section 9.02 or Section 5.13
of the Base Indenture, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding SP Security affected thereby, or 

  
 12 

 (iv) change in any manner adverse to the interests of the Holders of
Outstanding SP Securities the terms and conditions of the obligations of the Company in respect of the due and punctual payment of the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and interest (including Additional Amounts), if any, thereon, 

except in each case with respect to any modification or amendment of the Indenture or the SP Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture which is entered
into pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 9.01 of the Base Indenture (in which each such case neither the consent nor the affirmative vote of any Holder of an Outstanding SP Security affected shall be required). 

In addition, Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the SP Securities at the time Outstanding may, by Act, waive any past default under
the Indenture and hereunder and its consequences, except as provided in Section 5.13 of the Base Indenture. 
 9. Replacement;
Exchange and Transfer of SP Securities. (a) In case any SP Security shall become mutilated or be apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, upon the request of the registered Holder thereof and subject to Section 3.06 of the Base Indenture,
the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new SP Security containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the
mutilated SP Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the apparently destroyed, lost or stolen SP Security. In every case, the applicant for a substitute SP Security shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity as
may be required by each of them to indemnify and defend and to save each of them and any agent of the Company or the Trustee harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss
or theft of such SP Security and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute SP Security, the Holder of such SP Security, if so requested by the Company, will pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute SP Security. 

(b) The SP Securities are issuable in registered form and without coupons. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 9(e) hereof, a SP Security or SP Securities may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of SP Securities in different authorized denominations by surrender of such SP Security or SP
Securities at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office of a transfer agent, together with a written request for the exchange. 

(c) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 9(e) hereof, a SP
Security may be transferred in whole or in a smaller authorized denomination by the Holder or Holders surrendering the SP Security for transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office of a transfer agent accompanied by an
executed instrument of assignment and transfer. The registration of transfer of the SP Securities will be made by the Security Registrar in New York City. 

(d) The costs and expenses of effecting any exchange, transfer or registration of transfer pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, except, if the Company shall so require, the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge or other expenses that may be imposed in relation thereto, will be borne by the Company. 

(e) The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any SP Securities during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of SP Securities of like tenor and the same series under Section 11.03 of the Base Indenture and ending at the close of business on the day of such
selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any SP Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except in the case of any SP Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed. 

10. Trustee. For a description of the duties and the immunities and rights of the Trustee under the Indenture, reference is made to the
Indenture, and the obligations of the Trustee to the Holder hereof are subject to such immunities and rights.

 11. Paying Agent; Transfer Agent; Registrar. The Company hereby initially appoints
the Paying Agent, transfer agent and Security Registrar listed at the bottom of this SP Security. The Company may at any time appoint additional or other paying agents, transfer agents and registrars and terminate the appointment thereof;
provided that while the SP Securities are Outstanding the Company will maintain offices or agencies for the payment of principal of and any premium or interest (including Additional Amounts) on this SP Security as herein provided in New York
City. Notice of any such termination or appointment and of any change in the office through which any Paying Agent, transfer agent or Security Registrar will act will be promptly given in the manner described in paragraph 13 hereof. 

12. Enforcement. No Holder of any SP Security shall have any right by virtue of or by availing itself of any provision of the Indenture
or of these terms to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or the SP Securities or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless (a) such Holder has previously
given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the SP Securities, (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the SP Securities then Outstanding shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee thereunder and such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
compliance with such request, (c) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding, and (d) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding SP Securities. 

13. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided in or pursuant to the Indenture, where the Indenture provides for notice to Holders
of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a SP Security affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the
latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice given to the Holder of this Global Security shall be sufficiently given if such notice is given in accordance
with the applicable procedures of the Depository. 
 14. Prescription. All claims made against the Company for payment of principal
of, any premium or interest or Additional Amounts on, or in respect of, the SP Securities shall become void unless made within six years, or if shorter within the period provided for under New York law, from the later of the date on which such
payment first became due and the date on which the full amount was received by the Trustee or the Paying Agent. 
 15.
Authentication. This SP Security shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized
officers or by the Authenticating Agent. 
 16. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Service of Process. (a) This SP Security shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in said state, except that the authorization, issuance and execution by the Company
of the SP Securities and paragraphs 17(a) and 18 shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the common laws of the Kingdom of Spain. 

(b) In the Indenture, the Company has appointed Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., New York Branch, as its authorized agent upon which
process may be served in any suit or proceeding, other than a Bail-in Dispute, in any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York arising out of or relating to the
Indenture or any SP Security, but for that purpose only, and has agreed that service of process in any such suit or proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent at Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 45th Floor, New York, New York, 10105, U.S.A. (or at such other address or at the office of such other authorized agent as the Company may designate in accordance with Section 1.16 of the Base
Indenture). As long as any of the SP Securities remain Outstanding, the Company will at all times have an authorized agent in The City of New York upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding, other than a Bail-in Dispute, arising out of or relating to the Indenture or any SP Security, and service of process upon such agent and written notice of such service mailed or delivered to the Company shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such suit or proceeding. 

  
 14 

 (c) Except as provided in paragraph 16(d), the Company has irrevocably submitted to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture or any SP Security and
has irrevocably waived, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any such suit or proceeding. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the SP Securities or the Indenture, the Spanish courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction in
respect of any Bail-in Dispute and accordingly each of the Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial owner of any SP Security and each Paying Agent, transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security
Registrar submits, to the extent it may effectively do so, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Spanish courts in relation to any Bail-in Dispute. Each of the Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial
owner of any SP Securities and each Paying Agent, transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar further irrevocably waives, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection to the Spanish courts on the grounds that they are an
inconvenient or inappropriate forum in respect of any Bail-in Dispute. 
 17. Ranking.
(a) The SP Securities are direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Company and, upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the Insolvency
Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in the Kingdom of Spain (including, without limitation, Additional Provision 14.2 of Law 11/2015), but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a
result of any mandatory provision of law (or otherwise), the payment obligations of the Company under the SP Securities with respect to claims for principal (which claims will constitute ordinary claims) will rank: 

(i) junior to any (a) privileged claims (créditos privilegiados) (which shall include, among other claims,
any claims in respect of deposits for the purposes of Additional Provision 14.1 of Law 11/2015), and (b) claims against the insolvency estate (créditos contra la masa); 

(ii) pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves and with all other Senior Preferred Obligations; and

 (iii) senior to (a) any Senior Non-Preferred Obligations, and (b) all
subordinated obligations of, or claims against, the Company (créditos subordinados), present and future, 
 such that any claim for principal
in respect of the SP Securities will be satisfied, as appropriate, only to the extent that all claims ranking senior to it have first been satisfied in full, and then pro rata with any claims ranking pari passu with it, in each case as
provided above. 
 Upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company, in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the
Insolvency Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in Spain, but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a result of any mandatory provision of law (or otherwise), the payment
obligations of the Company under the SP Securities with respect to claims for accrued but unpaid interest on the SP Securities shall constitute subordinated claims (créditos subordinados) against the Company ranking in accordance with
the provisions of the Insolvency Law. No further interest on the SP Securities shall accrue from the date of declaration of the insolvency of the Company. 

“Insolvency Law” means Spanish Royal Legislative Decree 1/2020 of May 5, approving the consolidated text of the
Insolvency Law (Real Decreto Legislativo 1/2020, de 5 de mayo, por el que se aprueba el texto refundido de la Ley Concursal), as amended, replaced or supplemented from time to time. 

“ordinary claims” means the class of claims with respect to unsecured, non-privileged
and unsubordinated obligations (créditos ordinarios) of the Company which, upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company and pursuant to the Insolvency Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights in the Kingdom of Spain, rank (i) junior to privileged claims (créditos privilegiados) (which shall include, among other claims, any claims in respect of deposits for the purposes of
Additional Provision 14.1 of Law 11/2015 and any secured claims), and claims against the insolvency estate (créditos contra la masa) and (ii) senior to subordinated claims (créditos subordinados). 

  
 15 

 “Senior Non-Preferred Obligations”
(créditos ordinarios no preferentes) means the obligations of the Company with respect to any ordinary claims, present and future, which, upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company are expressed to rank within
the ordinary claims but junior to Senior Preferred Obligations. 
 “Senior Preferred Obligations” means the obligations of
the Company with respect to (i) the payment of principal under the SP Securities, and (ii) all other ordinary claims, present and future, other than Senior Non-Preferred Obligations.  

(b) Each Holder and beneficial owner of this SP Security by his acceptance thereof, to the extent permitted by Spanish law, authorizes and
directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the ranking of the SP Securities provided in this paragraph 17 and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, if required, to grant any private or public documents on such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s behalf. 

18. Certain Undertakings and Agreements by Holders. (a) Notwithstanding any other term of this SP Security, the Indenture or any
other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder, by its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder (which, for the purposes of this paragraph 18, includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the SP
Security) acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to be bound by: (i) the exercise and effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, which may be imposed with or
without any prior notice with respect to the SP Security, and may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (1) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities;
(2) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of any such shares, securities or
obligations), including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of the SP Securities; (3) the cancellation of the SP Securities; (4) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the SP Securities or amendment of
the amount of interest payable on the SP Securities, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (ii) the variation of the terms of the SP Securities or the rights of the
Holders thereunder or under the Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority. 
 (b) By its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that neither a reduction or cancellation, in
part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another person, in each case as a result of the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority with respect to the SP Securities shall: (i) give rise to a default or event of default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Defaults) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”); or (ii) be a default or an Event of Default with respect to the SP Securities or under the Indenture. By its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder further acknowledges
and agrees that no repayment or payment of Amounts Due on the SP Securities shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority
if, and to the extent that, such amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 
 (c) By
its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and
agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities. Additionally, by its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the
Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities: (i) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders with respect to any portion of the SP Securities that is written down, converted to
equity and/or cancelled under Section 5.12 of the Base Indenture; and (ii) the Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in
Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the SP
Securities, so long as any SP Securities remain Outstanding, there shall at all times be a trustee for the SP Securities in accordance with the Indenture, and the resignation and/or 

  
 16 

 
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee shall continue to be governed by the Indenture, including to the extent no additional supplemental indenture or amendment is
agreed upon in the event the SP Securities remain Outstanding following the completion of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power. 

(d) By its acquisition of this SP Security, each Holder shall be deemed to have authorized, directed and requested the Depository and any
direct participant in the Depository or other intermediary through which it holds such SP Security to take any and all necessary actions, if required, to implement the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power
with respect to the SP Security as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder. 
 (e) Upon the
exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities, the Company or the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (as the case may be) shall provide
a written notice to the Depository as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power for purposes of notifying the Holders of such SP Securities. The Company shall also deliver a copy
of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. 
 (f) If the Company has elected to redeem the SP Securities but prior to the
payment of the Redemption Price to Holders the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities, the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically
rescinded and shall be of no force and effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under Article 11 of the Base Indenture) will be due and payable.

 (g) Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities which
results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or such SP Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed satisfied and discharged as to
such series of SP Securities and such SP Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 
 (h) Each Holder that
acquires this SP Security in the secondary market or otherwise shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified herein and in the Indenture to the same extent as the Holders that acquire the SP
Securities upon their initial issuance, including, without limitation, with respect to this paragraph 18.

PROCEDURES TO BE PERFORMED BY THE ISSUER AND THE PAYING AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH SPANISH LAW 10/2014, OF JUNE 26, AS AMENDED, AND ROYAL
DECREE 1065/2007, OF JULY 27, AS AMENDED 
 These procedures set forth the steps to be followed by the Issuer and the Paying Agent in
respect of the SP Securities, pursuant to Section 2.06 of the First Supplemental Indenture to which this Exhibit B is appended. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture (as such term is
defined in the First Supplemental Indenture to which this Exhibit B is appended). 
 “New York Business Day” means a
Business Day. 
 “Payment Amount” means (i) with respect to an Interest Payment Date, the aggregate amount of interest
payable on such date, and (ii) with respect to a Redemption Date (other than a Redemption Date in respect of a Redemption for Failure to List), the aggregate amount of the difference, if any, between the aggregate Redemption Price of the SP
Securities being redeemed on such date and the aggregate principal amount of such SP Securities.

Interest Payment Date or a Redemption Date (other than a Redemption Date in respect of a Redemption for Failure to List), as applicable. 

“Payment Statement” means the statement to be delivered to the Issuer by the Paying Agent, substantially in the form set forth
in Annex I to this Exhibit B, pursuant to Section 2.06 of the First Supplemental Indenture. 
  

	(1)	 In the case of a Redemption Date (other than a Redemption Date in respect of a Redemption for Failure to List),
no later than 5:00 p.m. New York time on the New York Business Day prior to such Redemption Date, the Issuer shall notify the Paying Agent of the Payment Amount. 

 

	(2)	 On or before each Payment Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent an amount of funds sufficient to
pay the applicable Payment Amount gross of Spanish withholding tax, in accordance with Section 10.04 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture), together with any other amounts to be deposited
thereunder. 

  

	(3)	 No later than 11:00 p.m. New York time on the business day immediately preceding the relevant Payment Date
(“PD-1”), the Paying Agent shall deliver an executed Payment Statement to the Issuer, which the Paying Agent shall reasonably believe to be duly completed, substantially in the form set forth

clearing agency located outside the Kingdom of Spain (“Spain”) (including the Depository). 

  

	(4)	 The Payment Statement shall be dated as of PD-1, shall set forth
information as of the close of business of PD-1 and shall be executed after the close of business of PD-1. 

 

	(5)	 The Issuer shall review the Payment Statement submitted by the Paying Agent as soon as practicable. If the
Issuer believes that the information contained in the Payment Statement is incomplete or inaccurate or that the Payment Statement is otherwise not in compliance with the applicable regulation, it will notify the Paying Agent no later than 5:30 a.m.,

(c) The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of a
series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action (including an Act) provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such
series; provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this Section 1.04(c) shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in
Section 1.04(d). If any record date is set pursuant to this Section 1.04(c), the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or
not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date (as defined below) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this Section 1.04(c) shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this
Section 1.04(c) (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this Section 1.04(c) shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by
Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this Section 1.04(c), the Company, at its own expense, shall cause
notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 

(d) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any
series entitled to join in the giving or making of: (i) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 5.02; (ii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.07(ii); or (iii) any direction referred to in
Section 5.12, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this Section 1.04(d), the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be
entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration
Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this Section 1.04(d) shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a
record date has previously been set pursuant to this Section 1.04(d) (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this Section 1.04(d) shall
be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this
Section 1.04(d), the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the
relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 

  
 15 

 (e) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section with
respect to the Securities of a series, the party or parties hereto which set such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided
that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party or parties hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06,
on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be designated later than the 180th day after the applicable record date and, if an Expiration Date is not designated, with respect to any record
date set pursuant to this Section, the party or parties hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto. 

(f) The ownership, principal amount and serial numbers of Securities held by any Person, and the date of the commencement and
the date of the termination of holding the same, shall be proved by the Security Register. 
 (g) Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other Act is made upon such Security. 
 Section 1.05. Notices, etc., to Trustee and
Company. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or record of an Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, the Trustee
by any Holder, or any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver by the Company, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office. 
 (b) Any record of an Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon,
given or furnished to, or filed with, the Company by the Trustee or any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company
addressed to the attention of ALM - Finance at Calle Azul 4, 28050 Madrid, Spain (Alm.Internal.Control@bbva.com), or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 

Section 1.06. Notice to Holders of Securities; Waiver. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in or
pursuant to this Indenture, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of Securities of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given to Holders of Securities if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of a
Security affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice given
to the Holder of a Global Security shall be sufficiently given if such notice is given to such Holder through the Depository, in accordance with the Depository’s applicable procedures from time to time. 

(b) Any notice which is given in the manner provided in this Section 1.06 shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given or provided, whether or not such Holder actually receives the notice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any case where notice to Holders of Securities is given by mail as provided by this Section 1.06, neither the
failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular
mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. 

  
 16 

 (c) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders of Securities shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 
 Section 1.07.
Language of Notices. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election or waiver required or permitted under this Indenture shall be in the English language, except that, if the Company so elects, any published notice may
be in an official language of the country of publication. 
 Section 1.08. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If
any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall control. If any provision
hereof modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the provision of the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. 

Section 1.09. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of
Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 Section 1.10. Successors and
Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture made by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. 

Section 1.11. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or any Security shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 1.12. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or any Security, express or implied, shall give to
any Person (other than the parties hereto, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Securities), any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 

Section 1.13. Governing Law. This Indenture and the Securities (except as set forth herein and therein) shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in said state, except that the authorization and execution by the Company of this
Indenture, the authorization, issuance and execution by the Company of the Securities, the Securities to the extent forth therein and Sections 13.01, 13.02 and 15.01 hereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the common laws
of the Kingdom of Spain. 
 Section 1.14. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Stated
Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Security other than a provision in any Security that specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu
hereof) payment need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but such payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or at the Stated Maturity
or Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on the amount payable on such date or at such time for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be. 

Section 1.15. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an
original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 Section 1.16. Appointment of Agent for Service; Submission to
Jurisdiction. (a) The Company hereby designates and appoints Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A., New York Branch, 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 45th Floor, New York, New York 10105 as its authorized agent (the “Authorized
Agent”) upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding, other than a Bail-in Dispute (as defined in Section 1.16(c)), in any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture, but for that purpose only, and agrees that service of process upon said Authorized Agent shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process
upon it in any such suit or proceeding in any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York. Such appointment shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Securities remain Outstanding until the appointment of
a successor by the Company and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment. Upon such acceptance, the Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of such successor. The Company further agrees to take any and all action,
including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of said Authorized Agent in full force and effect so long as any of the Securities shall be
Outstanding. The Trustee shall not be obligated and shall have no responsibility with respect to any failure by the Company to take any such action. 

(b) Except as provided in Section 1.16(c), the Company hereby irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture, and
irrevocably waives, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any such suit or proceeding. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Securities or this Indenture, the Spanish courts shall have exclusive
jurisdiction in respect of any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Securities or this Indenture arising out of, relating to or in connection with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (a “Bail-in Dispute”) and accordingly each of the Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial owner of any Securities and each Paying Agent,
transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar submits, to the extent it may effectively do so, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Spanish courts in relation to any Bail-in Dispute. Each of the
Company, the Trustee, each Holder and beneficial owner of any Securities and each Paying Agent, transfer agent, Authenticating Agent and Security Registrar further irrevocably waives, to the extent it may effectively do so, any objection to the
Spanish courts on the grounds that they are an inconvenient or inappropriate forum in respect of any Bail-in Dispute. 

Section 1.17. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND EACH HOLDER AND BENEFICIAL OWNER OF A SECURITY
BY ITS ACCEPTANCE THEREOF HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE SECURITIES OR ANY TRANSACTION RELATED HERETO OR THERETO TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.” 
 (b)    The second paragraph of Section 3.01 of the Original
Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“With respect to any Securities to be authenticated and delivered hereunder, there shall be established or issued in or pursuant to a
Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate, or established in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, prior to the issuance of any Securities of a series the applicable terms of such Securities, including the following (in each case,
where applicable),” 

  
 18 

 (c)    Section 3.01(r) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with
respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“(r) (reserved);” 

(d)    Section 3.01(w) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not
apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“(w) any other terms of such Securities which the Company may establish;” 

(e)    Section 3.03 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 3.03. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. Securities shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by one of the representatives of the Company entitled to do so by Board Resolution or by any member of the Board of Directors. The signature of any of these authorized representatives on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities,
executed by the Company, to the Trustee for authentication and, provided that the Board Resolution, Officer’s Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Securities referred to in Section 3.01 and a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities have been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof and of such Securities shall authenticate and deliver such
Securities. In authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust
Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, 
 (a) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that: 

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

(iii) such Securities have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company; and 

(iv) this Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; and 

(b) an Officer’s Certificate stating that, to the best knowledge of the Persons executing such certificate, no event which
is, or after notice or lapse of time would become, an Event of Default with respect to any of the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing. 

If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of
Counsel and an Officer’s Certificate at the time of issuance of each Security, but 

  
 19 

 
such opinion and certificate, with appropriate modifications, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of such series. After any such first delivery, any
separate request by the Company that the Trustee authenticates Securities of such series for original issue will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to authentication
and delivery of such Securities continue to have been complied with. 
 The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or
to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise be in a
manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there
appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 2.02 or 6.13 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers or by the Authenticating
Agent. Such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold
by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.09, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder
and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.” 
 (f)    Section 3.11 of the Original Indenture
shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 3.11. [Reserved]” 

(g)    Section 4.01 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

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

(i) either 

(A) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (y) Securities of such series which
have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 3.06 and (z) Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the
Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 10.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, and
the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited with the 

  
 20 

 
Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose, money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, including the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Securities, to the date of such deposit; 

(ii) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company with respect to the Outstanding
Securities of such series; and 
 (iii) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series have been complied with. 

(b) In addition, upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to a
series of Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the Securities of such series or such Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be
deemed satisfied and discharged as to such series of Securities and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(c) In the event there are Securities of two or more series hereunder, the Trustee shall be required to execute an instrument
acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture only if requested to do so with respect to Securities of such series as to which it is Trustee and if the other conditions thereto are met. 

(d) Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any series of Securities, the obligations
of the Company to the Trustee under Sections 6.06 and 6.07 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (a)(i) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Sections 3.05, 3.06 and the
last paragraph of Section 10.03 shall survive.” 
 (h)    Sections 4.02, 4.03 and 4.04 and 4.05 of the
Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following, respectively: 

“Section 4.02. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.03. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.04. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.05. [Reserved].” 

(i)    Article 5 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and
shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 
 “ARTICLE 5
 
 REMEDIES 

Section 5.01. Event of Default. “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to
Securities of any series, means (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body) that, except as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 5.01, an order shall have been made by any competent court commencing insolvency proceedings (procedimiento concursal) against the
Company or an order of any competent court or administrative agency shall have been made or a resolution shall have been passed by the Company for the dissolution or winding up of the Company (except (i) in the case of a

  
 21 

 
reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger carried out in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 8.01 (in this case, even without being approved by an Act of the
Holders of the Securities of such series) or (ii) in any such case for the purpose of a reconstruction or a consolidation or an amalgamation or a merger which has been approved by an Act of the Holders of the Securities of such series). 

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, any Resolution or Early Intervention with respect to the Company shall
not, in and of itself and without regard to any other fact or circumstance, constitute a default or an Event of Default under the immediately preceding paragraph or under any other provision of this Indenture with respect to the Securities of any
series. In addition, neither (i) a reduction or cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as
a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor (ii) the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of any series, shall constitute an Event of Default or default under this Indenture or the Securities of any series or
otherwise constitute non-performance of a contractual obligation, or entitle the Holders of the Securities of any such series to any remedies, which are hereby expressly waived. In addition, no repayment or
payment of Amounts Due on the Securities of any series shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent
that, such amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 

Section 5.02. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then the principal, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of such Outstanding Securities or Security, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to have been declared, and shall become, immediately and automatically, due and payable. For the avoidance of doubt, only an Event of Default (rather than any breach or default under the Indenture or the Securities of any series) may give
rise to a declaration of acceleration pursuant to this Section 5.02. 
 (b) At any time after such a declaration of
acceleration with respect to Securities or Security, as the case may be, of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders
of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, may by Act, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 

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

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

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

(C) to the extent that payment of such interest or Additional Amounts is lawful, interest upon overdue installments of any
interest and Additional Amounts at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and 
 (D) all sums paid
or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.07; and 

(ii) all Event(s) of Default with respect to Securities of such series shall have been cured or waived as provided in
Section 5.13. 

  
 22 

 (c) No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.
(a) The Company covenants that if: 
 (i) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on or any
Additional Amounts with respect to any Security when such interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable and such default continues for a period of 21 days, or 

(ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security at its Maturity and such default is not
remedied, in the case of a default in the payment of the principal, within 14 days and, in the case of a default in the payment of any premium, within 30 days, 

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

(b) If the Company fails to pay the money it is required to pay the Trustee pursuant to the preceding paragraph forthwith upon
the demand of the Trustee, the Trustee, acting upon an Act of the Holders of Securities of such series or in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the money so due and unpaid, and
may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, and collect the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the
property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities, wherever situated. 
 (c) If an Event of Default with
respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the
Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or such Securities or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein or therein, or to
enforce any other proper remedy. 
 No remedy against the Company other than as provided in this Article 5 shall be available
to the Holders, whether for the recovery of amounts owing to the Holders in respect of the Securities of any series or under this Indenture or in respect of any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the
Securities of any series or under this Indenture. 
 Section 5.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. (a) In
case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other similar judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property
of the Company or such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee
shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of any overdue principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, 

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such
series, of the principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents or counsel and of the Holders of Securities) allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

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

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

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

aggregate amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium, interest and Additional Amounts, respectively; 

THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company or any other Person or Persons entitled thereto. 

Section 5.07. Limitations on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

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

  
 24 

 (iii) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (iv) no direction inconsistent with such written
request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series; 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing
of, any provision of this Indenture or any Security to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other such Holders or Holders of Securities of any other series, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or
to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 

Section 5.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and any Premium, Interest and Additional
Amounts. Except as set forth in the immediately following paragraph, notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture and in any Security, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive
payment of the principal of, any premium and (subject to Section 3.07) interest on, and any Additional Amounts with respect to, such Security on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities therefor specified in such Security (or, in
the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder, except that Holders of not less than 75% in
principal amount of Outstanding Securities of a series may consent by Act, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to the postponement of the Stated Maturity of any installment of interest for a period not exceeding
three years from the original Stated Maturity of such installment (which original Stated Maturity shall have been fixed, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment). 

The Securities of any series may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in
Power, and no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Company in connection with or arising out of any such exercise. No repayment or payment of Amounts Due on the Securities of any series will become due and payable or be paid after
the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such
exercise. 
 Section 5.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder of a Security has
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the
Company, the Trustee and each such Holder shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and each such Holder
shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

paragraph of Section 5.03, except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or to each and every Holder of a Security is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy, to the extent permitted by law, shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not, subject as aforesaid, prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any
other appropriate right or remedy, to the extent permitted by applicable law. 

  
 25 

 Section 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission
of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, except as
otherwise provided in applicable law. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to any Holder of a Security may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by such Holder,
as the case may be. 
 Section 5.12. Control by Holders of Securities. The Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the Outstanding Securities of the relevant series, by Act, shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that: 
 (i) such direction shall not be in conflict
with any rule of law or with this Indenture or with the Securities of any series, 
 (ii) the Trustee may take any other
action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
 (iii) such direction is not unduly
prejudicial to the rights of the other Holders of Securities of such series not joining in such action. 

Section 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults. (a) Subject to Section 5.02(b)(i)(D), the Holders of not less than
a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series may, by Act, waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a
default: 
 (i) in the payment of the principal of or any premium, or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect
to, any Security of such series, or 
 (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 9 cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. 
 (b) Upon any
such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom (if applicable) shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or
impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 5.14. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of
any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and
may assess reasonable costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such
an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company.” 
 (j)    Sections 6.02(e),
6.02(f) and 6.02(g) of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following provisions, respectively:

 “(e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by or pursuant to
this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 

  
 26

bond, debenture, other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or
investigation, it shall be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable notice, the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; provided that the Trustee shall not be entitled to such information
which the Company is prevented from disclosing as a matter of law or contract; 
 (g) the Trustee shall not be charged with
knowledge of the occurrence of any default or an Event of Default, and such knowledge shall not be imparted to the Trustee, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such default or Event of Default from the Company
or any Holder of an Outstanding Security of the relevant series and such notice references the specific default or Event of Default under the Securities of such series and this Indenture, and is given in the manner required by Section 1.05
hereof;” 
 (k)    Section 6.03 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only
and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:

Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities of such series entitled to receive reports pursuant to Section 7.03(c), notice of such default hereunder, unless such default
shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers
of the Trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the best interest of the Holders of Securities of such series. For the purpose of this Section, the term “default” means any event which is, or after
notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series.” 

(l)    Section 6.04 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 6.04. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The recitals contained herein and in
the Securities, except the Trustee’s and any Authenticating Agent’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their
correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the
Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company are true and accurate, subject to the
qualifications set forth therein. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Securities or the proceeds thereof.”

respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:

trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law and shall be held uninvested. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder.” 

(n)    Section 6.07 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply
to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“Section 6.07. Compensation and Reimbursement. (a) The Company agrees: 

(i) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by the Trustee hereunder as
agreed between the Company and the Trustee (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 

(ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may be attributable to the Trustee’s negligence or bad faith; and 
 (iii) to indemnify the Trustee
(which for the purposes of this Section 6.07(a)(iii) shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents acting on behalf of the Trustee) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (other than taxes based upon,
measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent that any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence or bad
faith. 
 The Trustee shall notify the Company in writing of the commencement of any action or claim in respect of which
indemnification may be sought promptly after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of such commencement (provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect the Trustee’s rights hereunder) and the Company shall be
entitled to participate therein. The Trustee shall not be authorized to settle a claim without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(b) As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior
to the Securities of any series upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of, and premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to Securities. 

(c) Any compensation or expense incurred by the Trustee after a default specified by Section 5.01 is intended to
constitute an expense of administration under any then applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law. “Trustee” for purposes of this Section 6.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee but the negligence or bad faith of any Trustee shall not
affect the rights of any other Trustee under this Section 6.07. The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination or, if applicable, the satisfaction or discharge, of this
Indenture including any termination under any bankruptcy law and (without prejudice to Section 15.02 of this Indenture if, and to the extent applicable, as set out therein) any exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities of any series. 

  
 28 

 (d) In addition, and without prejudice to the rights provided to the Trustee
under any of the provisions of this Indenture, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01 hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and
expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. 

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, any and all amounts due and owing to the Trustee under this Section 6.07 shall be payable
within 6 (six) days of the date on which the Trustee can demand payment hereunder for purposes of this Indenture and for purposes of Article 42(1)(e) and Article 46 of Law 11/2015.” 

(o)    Article 8 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and
shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 
 “ARTICLE
8 
 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALES; ASSUMPTION;
SUBSTITUTION AND MODIFICATION 
 Section 8.01. Company May Consolidate,
etc. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent any reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company with or into any other Person or Persons (whether or not affiliated with the Company), or
successive reconstructions, consolidations, amalgamations or mergers in which the Company or the successor or successors of the Company shall be a party or parties, or shall prevent any sale, transfer, conveyance or lease of the property of the
Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, to any other Person (whether or not affiliated with the Company); provided that any Person formed by any reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation or merger, or any transferee or
lessee of the Company’s assets shall expressly (except where such assumption is automatic by operation of law) assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on all
Securities in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed. 

Upon any such assumption, the acquiring, resulting or successor Person shall succeed to, and substitute, and may exercise every
right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with respect to any such Securities with the same effect as if such Person had been named as the Company in this Indenture, and the Company or any legal and valid successor Person which shall
theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed herein, shall be released from all liability as obligor and any other obligations and covenants under this Indenture and under any such Securities, as the case may be. 

Section 8.02. Non-Spanish Successor Person. In the event of any
reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance or lease permitted by Section 8.01 and Section 5.01 above or any assumption of obligations permitted by Section 8.03 where the acquiring, resulting or
successor Person is not incorporated or tax resident in the Kingdom of Spain, Additional Amounts under the Securities will thereafter be payable in respect of taxes imposed by such acquiring, resulting or successor Person’s jurisdiction of
incorporation or tax residence (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to the obligation to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 in respect of taxes imposed by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain) rather than taxes
imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. Additional Amounts with respect to payments of interest or principal due prior to the date of such reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance, lease or assumption will be payable
only in respect of taxes imposed by the Kingdom of Spain. If the acquiring, resulting or successor Person is not incorporated or tax resident in the Kingdom of Spain, it will also be 

  
 29 

 
entitled to redeem the Securities in the circumstances described in Section 11.08(a), except that (i) references to the Kingdom of Spain shall be deemed to refer to such acquiring,
resulting or successor Person’s jurisdiction of incorporation or tax residence, and (ii) the relevant change, amendment, application or interpretation must become effective subsequent to the date of any reconstruction, consolidation,
amalgamation, merger, sale, transfer, conveyance or lease permitted by Section 8.01 and Section 5.01 or the assumption of obligations permitted by Section 8.03, as the case may be. 

Section 8.03. Assumption of Obligations. With respect to the Securities of any series, unless otherwise specified
in accordance with Section 3.01, any holding company of the Company or any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (for purposes of this Section 8.03 only, a “successor entity”) may without the consent of any Holder assume
the obligations of the Company (or of any Person which shall have previously assumed the obligations of the Company) for the due and punctual payment of the principal, interest, Additional Amounts and premium (if any) on any series of Securities in
accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture and the performance of every covenant of this Indenture and such series of Securities on the part of the Company to be performed or observed, provided that: 

(a) the successor entity shall, except where such assumption is automatic by operation of law, expressly assume such
obligations by an amendment to this Indenture, executed by the Company and such successor entity, if applicable, and delivered to the Trustee, in a form satisfactory to the Trustee; 

(b) immediately after giving effect to such assumption of obligations, no Event of Default and no event which, after notice or
lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (c) the Company shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such assumption complies with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such assumption have been complied with;
and 
 (d) immediately prior to such assumption, the successor entity shall have ratings for long-term senior debt assigned
by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or their respective successors) which are the same as, or higher than, the credit rating for long-term senior debt of the Company (or, if applicable, the
previous successor entity) assigned by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or their respective successors). 

Upon any such assumption, the successor entity shall succeed to, and substitute, and may exercise every right and power of, the
Company under this Indenture with respect to any such Securities with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named as the Company in this Indenture, and the Company or any legal and valid successor Person which shall theretofore have
become such in the manner prescribed herein, shall be released from all liability as obligor and any other obligations and covenants under this Indenture and under any such Securities, as the case may be. 

Section 8.04. Substitution and Modification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture (including
Article 9 hereof), if an Eligible Liabilities Event occurs and is continuing, the Company may substitute all (but not less than all) of the Securities of any series or modify the terms of all (but not less than all) of the Securities of such series,
without the consent or approval of the Holders or beneficial owners of the Securities of such series, so that such Securities are substituted by, or their terms are modified to, become again, or remain, Qualifying Securities, subject to:
(i) having given not less than 30 nor more than 90 days’ notice to the Holders of such series in accordance with Section 1.06 and to the Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date for substitution or, as
applicable, modification), (ii) the prior consent of the Regulator if required pursuant to Applicable Banking Regulations, and (iii) any variation in the terms of the Securities resulting from such modification or, if the Securities are
substituted, any difference between the terms of such Securities and those of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, not being materially prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such Securities and the Company
having delivered an 

  
 30 

 
Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee to that effect not less than five Business Days prior to (a) in the case of a substitution of the Securities, the issue date of the relevant
Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted or (b) in the case of a modification of the terms and conditions of the Securities, the date such modification becomes effective. 

For the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph, in the case of a modification of the terms and conditions of the
Securities, any variation in the ranking of the relevant Securities as set out in Section 13.01 resulting from any such modification or, in the case of a substitution of the Securities, any difference between the ranking of such Securities as
set out in Section 13.01 and that of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, shall be deemed not to be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of such Securities where the ranking of the Securities or, if the
Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted, following such substitution or modification, as the case may be, is at least the same ranking as was applicable to such Securities under
Section 13.01 on the issue date of such Securities. 
 For the purposes of the second immediately preceding paragraph,
the notice to be delivered by the Company shall specify the relevant details of the manner in which the relevant substitution or modification shall take effect and where the Holders of such series can inspect or obtain copies of the new terms and
conditions of the Securities of such series or, if such Securities are substituted, of the Qualifying Securities by which such Securities are substituted. Such substitution or modification will be effected without any cost or charge to such Holders.

 If the Securities of a series are substituted in accordance with this Section 8.04, such Securities shall cease to
bear interest from (and including) the date of substitution thereof. 
 Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of
any series shall, by virtue of its acquisition of the Securities of any series or any beneficial interest therein, be deemed to acknowledge, accept, consent to and agree to be bound by any substitution of or modification to the terms of the
Securities of such series as set forth in this Section 8.04 and to grant to the Company and the Trustee full power and authority to take any action and/or to execute and deliver any document in the name and/or on behalf of such Holder or
beneficial owner, as the case may be, which is necessary or convenient to complete the substitution of or modification to the terms of the Securities of such series, as applicable. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of any series, by
virtue of its acquisition of the Securities of any series or any beneficial interest therein, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee and/or the Company for, agrees
not to initiate a suit against the Trustee and/or the Company in respect of, and agrees that neither the Trustee nor the Company shall be liable for, any action that the Trustee or the Company takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in
connection with the substitution of or modification to the terms of the Securities upon the occurrence of an Eligible Liabilities Event.”

 (p)    Article 9 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its
entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:

Maturity of such installment (which original Stated Maturity shall have been fixed, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to any previous postponements of such installment)) or any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, or any premium payable upon the
redemption thereof or otherwise, or change the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 10.04 (except as contemplated by Section 3.07 and permitted by Section 9.01(a)), or reduce the amount of the
principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02 or the amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 5.04, or
change the redemption provisions, or change the Place of Payment, Currency in which the principal of, any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or with respect to any Security on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or 

(ii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is
required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences) provided for in this Indenture,
or reduce the requirements for a quorum or voting, or 
 (iii) modify any of the provisions of this Section or
Section 5.13, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby, or 

(iv) change in any manner adverse to the interests of the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series the terms and
conditions of the obligations of the Company in respect of the due and punctual payment of the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and interest (including Additional Amounts), if any, thereon, 

except in each case with respect to any modification or amendment of the Indenture or the Securities pursuant to a supplemental indenture which
is entered into pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 9.01 (in which each such case neither the consent nor the affirmative vote of any Holder of an Outstanding Security affected shall be required). 

(b) A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which shall have
been included expressly and solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to
affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. 
 (c) It shall not be necessary for
any Act of Holders of Securities under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

Section 9.03. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. As a condition to executing, or accepting the additional trusts
created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trust created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the documents required by Section 1.02, and (subject
to Section 315 of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be 

  
 33 

 
fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel and Officer’s Certificate, each stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture.
The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

Section 9.04. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this
Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes and every Holder of a Security of a series affected thereby theretofore or thereafter
authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Indenture and the terms and conditions of the relevant supplemental indenture, the terms and conditions of the
relevant supplemental indenture shall prevail. 
 Section 9.05. Reference in Securities to Supplemental
Indentures. Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any
matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Company and such Securities may be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series. 

Section 9.06. Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article
shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.” 
 (q)    Article 10 of the
Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following: 

“ARTICLE 10 

COVENANTS 

Section 10.01. Payment of Principal and Any Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts. The Company covenants
and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of each series that it will (subject to the provisions of Section 3.07, Article 13 and Article 15) duly and punctually pay the principal of, any premium and interest on, and any
Additional Amounts with respect to, the Securities of such series in accordance with, and except as provided in, the terms thereof and this Indenture. 

Section 10.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series
of Securities an Office or Agency where Securities of such series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the
Company in respect of the Securities of such series relating thereto and this Indenture may be served. 
 The Company may
also from time to time designate one or more other Offices or Agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however,
that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an Office or Agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other Office or Agency. The Company hereby designates as the Place of Payment for each 

  
 34 

 
series the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and initially appoints The Bank of New York Mellon, located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10286, United States, for purposes of such
Office or Agency. Pursuant to Section 3.01(h), the Company may subsequently appoint a place or places in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York where such Securities may be payable. The Company initially appoints The Bank of New York
Mellon, London Branch, as Paying Agent and transfer agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, acting through its corporate trust office in New York, as the Security Registrar. 

Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Securities pursuant to Section 3.01, if and so long as the Securities of
any series (i) are denominated in a Foreign Currency or (ii) may be payable in a Foreign Currency, or so long as it is required under any other provision of this Indenture, then the Company will maintain with respect to each such series of
Securities, or as so required, at least one exchange rate agent. 
 Section 10.03. Money for Securities Payments to
Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at any time act as the Company’s Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it shall, on or before each due date for payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or Additional
Amounts with respect to, any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the
Securities of such series are payable (except as otherwise specified pursuant to Section 3.01 for the Securities of such series) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due until such sums
shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and shall promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it shall, on or prior to each due date
for payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Securities of such series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum (in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal or any premium, interest or Additional Amounts so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto, and (unless such Paying
Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. The obligation of the Company to pay any such amount shall be satisfied upon the deposit referred to in this paragraph. Receipt of the relevant
sum by the Paying Agent (other than the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) shall discharge the Company’s obligations in respect of the relevant payment. 

The Company shall cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) to execute and
deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent shall: 

(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with
respect to, Securities of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture; 

(ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the
making of any payment of principal, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such series; and 

(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time and for any purpose pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent;
and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums. 

  
 35 

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

Section 10.04. Additional Amounts. The provisions of this Section 10.04 shall be applicable to the Securities
of each series except as specifically deleted or modified in or pursuant to the supplemental indenture or Board Resolution creating such series of Securities or in the Officer’s Certificate for such series of Securities. Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Company hereby further agrees that any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each Security shall be paid without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever
nature (“Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event any such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied in respect of payment of interest (but not principal or premium) by or on behalf of the
Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, the Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by the Holder of such
Security under this Indenture, after such withholding or deduction, shall equal the amount of interest, if any, which would have been receivable by such Holder in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the
foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 
 (a) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder who is
liable for such Taxes by reason of such Holder (or the beneficial owner of the Security for whose benefit such Holder holds such Security) having some connection with the Kingdom of Spain other than the mere holding of the Security (or such
beneficial interest) or the mere crediting of the Security to its securities account with the relevant Depository; 
 (b) in
the case of a Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date (as defined below) except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the same for
payment on such thirtieth day assuming that day to have been a Business Day in such place of presentment; 
 (c) in respect
of any Tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure by the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the
nationality, residence or 

  
 36 

 
identity of the Holder or beneficial owner of that Security, if compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the Kingdom of Spain or of any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein as a precondition to reduction of or relief or exemption from the tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 

(d) in respect of any Security presented for payment (where presentation is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be
able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Security to another Paying Agent; 
 (e) to, or to a
third party on behalf of, a Holder if the Company does not receive any relevant information as may be required by Spanish tax laws and regulations (including any binding rulings), including a duly executed and completed Payment Statement from the
Paying Agent; or 
 (f) in the event that the Securities are redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) hereof. 

Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary,
partnership, limited liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the
income, for Spanish tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional
Amounts had it been a Holder of such Security. 
 No Additional Amounts will be paid by the Company, the Trustee or any
Paying Agent on account of any withholding or deduction from a payment on, or in respect of, the Securities where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections
1471-1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and the Kingdom of Spain or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA,
or any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted or issued in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement. 

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

Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of interest on, or in respect of, any Security of
any series, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in
respect thereof pursuant to such terms, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is
not made. 
 Section 10.05. Statement as to Default. For so long as any Securities of any series are Outstanding,
the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of its fiscal years ending after the date hereof, a brief certificate, complying with Section 314(e) of the Trust Indenture Act, from one or more authorized representatives
of the Company, stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of the signer or signers thereof, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Indenture (such compliance
to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder). 

  
 37 

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

Section 10.07. Waiver of Certain Covenants. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 3.01 for
Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b) or
Section 9.01(c) for the benefit of the Holders of Securities of such series or any term, provision or condition set forth in an indenture supplemental hereto, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or
affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall
remain in full force and effect.” 
 (r)    Article 11 of the Original Indenture shall be deleted in its entirety
with respect to the SP Securities only and shall not apply to the SP Securities and shall, with respect to the SP Securities only, be replaced by the following:  

“ARTICLE 11 

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 

Section 11.01. Applicability of Article. Redemption of Securities of any series at the option of the Company as
permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article. In addition, any such redemption shall be in compliance
with the Applicable Banking Regulations and, if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator. 

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

Section 11.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Securities of any series
with the same interest rate, Stated Maturity and other terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such
series not previously called for redemption, by lot and may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the principal amount (or in the 

  
 38 

 
case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of Securities of such series; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the
principal amount (or in the case of an Original Issue Discount Security, the original issue amount) of a Security of such series not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein or pursuant hereto.

 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the
Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 

For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of
Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. 

Section 11.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in
Section 1.06, not less than 30 nor more than 90 days prior to the Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified in the Securities to be redeemed, to the Holders of Securities to be redeemed. Failure to give notice by mailing in the
manner herein provided to the Holder of any Securities designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Securities or
portion thereof. 
 Any notice that is mailed to the Holder of any Securities in the manner herein provided shall be
conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not such Holder actually receives the notice. 
 All notices of
redemption shall state: 
 (i) the Redemption Date, 

(ii) the Redemption Price, 

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

(iv) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and
after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, the Holder of such Security will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denomination, containing identical terms and provisions, for the principal amount
thereof remaining unredeemed, 
 (v) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon
each such Security or portion thereof to be redeemed, and, if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after said date, 

(vi) the place or places where such Securities maturing after the Redemption Date, are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts pertaining thereto, and 
 (vii) the CUSIP number or the
Euroclear Bank. S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, reference number of such Securities, if any (or any other numbers used by a Depository to identify such Securities). 

Except as otherwise provided herein, notice of redemption published as contemplated by Section 1.06 need not identify
particular Securities to be redeemed. 

  
 39 

 Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the
Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 

If the Company has elected to redeem the Securities of any series but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to Holders
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to such series of Securities, the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force
and effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under this Article 11) will be due and payable. 

Section 11.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or
with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an
Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, and Additional Amounts with respect thereto, all the Securities or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that date. 

Section 11.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the
Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest)
such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, maturing after the Redemption Date, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with
any accrued interest and Additional Amounts to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities,
or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the Regular Record Dates therefor according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07. 

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any
premium, until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 

Section 11.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered
at any Office or Agency for such Security (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series, containing identical terms and
provisions, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. If a Global Security is so surrendered, the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the U.S. Depository or other Depository for such Global Security as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, without service charge, a new
Global Security in a denomination equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Global Security so surrendered. 

Section 11.08. Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons. (a) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of
any series, all or part of the Securities of any series may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 at the option of the Company if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or
regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof 

  
 40 

 
or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective
on or after the issue date of the Securities of such series, (i) the Company would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the Securities with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or other
governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Company would
not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on such series of Securities or the value of such deduction to the Company would be
reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, in the case of (i) above, no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to
the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Securities then due. 

Prior to any notice of redemption of such Securities pursuant to Section 11.04, the Company shall provide the Trustee with
(i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the
Company to redeem such Securities pursuant to this Section have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding paragraph prevail. 

(b) Unless otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, if the Securities of a series are not listed on an organized
market in an OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to the applicable first Interest Payment Date on the Securities of such series, the Company may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice (ending on a day which is
no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders of Securities of such series of Securities in accordance with Section 11.04 (which notice will be irrevocable), redeem all (but not less than
all) of the Securities of such series at the Redemption Price; provided that from and including the issue date of such Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain
such listing, as applicable. 
 Section 11.09. Redemption for Eligible Liabilities Event. Unless otherwise
provided in the Securities of any series, all (but not less than all) of the Securities of any series may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of this Article 11 at the option of the Company if an Eligible Liabilities
Event occurs on or after the issue date of such Securities. 
 Prior to any notice of redemption of such Securities pursuant
to Section 11.04, the Company shall provide the Trustee with (i) an Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of
circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company to redeem such Securities pursuant to this Section 11.09 have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the circumstances referred to
in the preceding paragraph prevail.”

creditors’ rights in the Kingdom of Spain (including, without limitation, Additional Provision 14.2 of Law 11/2015), but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a result of any mandatory provision of law (or otherwise), the payment

any claims in respect of deposits for the purposes of Additional Provision 14.1 of Law 11/2015), and (b) claims against the insolvency estate (créditos contra la masa); 

(ii) pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves and with all other Senior Preferred Obligations;
and 
 (iii) senior to (a) any Senior Non-Preferred Obligations, and
(b) all subordinated obligations of, or claims against, the Company (créditos subordinados), present and future, 
 such
that any claim for principal in respect of the Securities will be satisfied, as appropriate, only to the extent that all claims ranking senior to it have first been satisfied in full, and then pro rata with any claims ranking pari passu with
it, in each case as provided above. 
 Upon the insolvency (concurso de acreedores) of the Company, in accordance with
and to the extent permitted by the Insolvency Law and other applicable laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in Spain, but subject to any other ranking that may apply as a result of any mandatory provision of law
(or otherwise), the payment obligations of the Company under the Securities of any series with respect to claims for accrued but unpaid interest on such Securities shall constitute subordinated claims (créditos subordinados) against
the Company ranking in accordance with the provisions of the Insolvency Law. No further interest on the Securities of any series shall accrue from the date of declaration of the insolvency of the Company.  

Prior to any voluntary or necessary declaration of insolvency of the Company under the Insolvency Law or any voluntary or
mandatory liquidation of the Company or similar procedure, the Company may be subject to an Early Intervention or Resolution or to any other exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power and the Securities of any
series may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power, in which case no Holder of any Security shall have any claim against the Company in connection with or arising out of any such exercise of
the Spanish Bail-in Power. 
 Section 13.02. Waiver of Right of Set-Off. Subject to applicable law, neither any Holder or beneficial owner of the Securities of any series nor the Trustee acting on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of such series may exercise, claim or
plead any right of set-off, compensation or retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Company in respect of, or arising under, or in connection with,

  
 42 

 
the Securities of such series or this Indenture and each Holder and beneficial owner of the Securities of such series, by virtue of its holding of any Securities of such series or any interest
therein, and the Trustee acting on behalf of the Holders of the Securities of such series, shall be deemed to have waived all such rights of set-off, compensation or retention. If, notwithstanding the above,
any amounts due and payable to any Holder or beneficial owner of a Security of any series or any interest therein by the Company in respect of, or arising under, the Securities of such series are discharged by
set-off, such Holder or beneficial owner shall, subject to applicable law, immediately pay an amount equal to the amount of such discharge to the Company (or, if any voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the
Company shall have occurred, the liquidator or administrator of the Company, as the case may be) and, until such time as payment is made, shall hold an amount equal to such amount in trust (where possible) or otherwise for the Company (or the
liquidator or administrator of the Company, as the case may be) and, accordingly, any such discharge shall be deemed not to have taken place. 

Section 13.03. Trustee to Effectuate Ranking. Each Holder and beneficial owner of a Security by his acceptance
thereof, to the extent permitted by Spanish law, authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the ranking of the Securities provided in this Article 13 and appoints the Trustee
his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, if required, to grant any private or public documents on such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s
behalf. 
 Section 13.04. Rights of Trustee as Creditor of Senior Preferred Obligations; Preservation of
Trustee’s Rights. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 13 with respect to any claims of creditors of Senior Preferred Obligations
which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other creditor of Senior Preferred Obligations, and nothing in this Indenture or the Trust Indenture Act shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 

Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.07. 

 Section 13.05. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. At all times when a Paying Agent other than the Trustee
shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article 13 shall in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent
within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article 13 in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Section 13.04 shall not apply to the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.”

Section 15.01. Agreement with Respect to the Exercise of Spanish Bail-in
Power. (a) Notwithstanding any other term of the Securities of any series, the Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder of the Securities of any series, by its acquisition of the
Securities of any series, each Holder (which, for the purposes of this Article 15, includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities of any series) acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to be bound by: (i) the exercise and
effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, which may be imposed with or without any prior notice with respect to the Securities of any series, and may include and result
in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (a) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series; (b) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities
of any series into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of any such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment, modification or
variation of the terms of the Securities; (c) the cancellation of the Securities of any series; (d) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Securities of any series or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the

under the Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority. 

(b) By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that neither a reduction or
cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the Securities of any series or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority with respect to the Securities of a series shall: (i) give rise to a default or event of default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Defaults) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust
Indenture Act; or (ii) be a default or an Event of Default with respect to the Securities or under this Indenture. By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder further acknowledges and agrees that no repayment or payment of
Amounts Due on the Securities of any series shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such
amounts have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 
 (c) By its acquisition
of the Securities of any series, each Holder, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and
agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of such series. Additionally, by its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of such series: (i) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders with respect
to any portion of the Securities of such series that is written down, converted to equity and/or cancelled under Section 5.12 of this Indenture; and (ii) this Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect
to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the exercise of the Spanish
Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of a series, so long as any Securities of such series remain Outstanding, there shall at all times be a trustee for the
Securities of such series in accordance with the Indenture, and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee shall continue to be governed by this Indenture, including to the extent no additional
supplemental indenture or amendment is agreed upon in the event the Securities of such series remain Outstanding following the completion of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power. 

  
 44 

 (d) By its acquisition of the Securities of any series, each Holder shall be
deemed to have authorized, directed and requested the relevant Depository (including, if applicable, The Depository Trust Company) and any direct participant therein or other intermediary through which it holds such Securities to take any and all
necessary actions, if required, to implement the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder.

 (e) Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities of any series, the Company or the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (as the case may be) shall provide a written notice to the Depository as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the
Spanish Bail-in Power for purposes of notifying the Holders of such Securities. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. 

(f) If the Company has elected to redeem the Securities of any series but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to
Holders the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to such series of Securities the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of
no force and effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under Article 11) will be due and payable. 

(g) Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to a series of
Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the Securities of such series or such Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed
satisfied and discharged as to such series of Securities and such Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(h) Each Holder that acquires Securities of any series in the secondary market or otherwise shall be deemed to acknowledge and
agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in this Indenture to the same extent as the Holders that acquire the Securities upon their initial issuance, including, without limitation, with respect to this Article 15. 

Section 15.02. BRRD Liabilities. Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of this Indenture or any
other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and the Trustee, the Trustee acknowledges and accepts that a BRRD Liability arising under this Indenture may be subject to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, and acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to be bound by:

Liability;

 45 

 (b) the variation of the terms of such BRRD Liability or outstanding amounts
due thereon and/or this Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority.

 The terms of this Article 15 shall survive the payment in full of the Securities, the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture with respect to any series of Securities (where such satisfaction or discharge is allowed by the terms of the relevant series of Securities), the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination for any reason of this
Indenture.” 
 (w)    The Table of Contents of the Original Indenture shall be amended to the extent necessary to
reflect the amendments to the Original Indenture made in this Article 2. 
 ARTICLE 3 

SP SECURITIES 

Section 3.01.    Creation of SP Securities. There is hereby created a new series of securities, the SP
Securities, to be issued under the Indenture. The SP Securities will be issued by means of the public deed of issuance executed on September 11, 2020 and registered with the Mercantile Registry of Vizcaya (Bizkaia) on September [16], 2020. 

Section 3.02.    Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount of SP Securities. The aggregate principal amount of
the SP Securities shall initially be limited to $800,000,000 (except for SP Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other SP Securities of such series pursuant to Sections 3.04,
3.05, 3.06, 9.05 or 11.07 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) or the terms of such SP Securities and except for any SP Securities that, pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented
hereby), are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered thereunder). The Issuer may from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of SP Securities, create and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions as the
previously issued SP Securities in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue date, the original interest accrual date and/or the issue price), so that such further issue shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Outstanding
SP Securities; provided, however, that any such further issuance will only be made if either such additional securities are issued with no more than de minimis original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes or any
such further issuance is a “qualified reopening” as such term is defined under U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-2(k)(3) promulgated under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. 
 Section 3.03.    Payment of Principal. The principal of the Outstanding SP Securities shall be
due and payable on the Stated Maturity Date. 
 Section 3.04.    Interest and Interest Rate.
(a) The SP Securities will bear interest from and including the Issue Date at an annual rate of 1.125%. 

(b)    The Issuer will pay interest in arrears on the SP Securities semi-annually on September 18 and March 18
of each year, commencing on March 18, 2021, up to, and including, the Stated Maturity Date (each an “Interest Payment Date”) or any date of earlier redemption. 

(c)    Interest on the SP Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months. Except as described below for the first Interest Payment Date, on each Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will pay interest on the SP Securities for the period commencing on and
including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date and ending on and including the day immediately preceding that Interest Payment Date. 

  
 46 

 (d)    On the first Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will pay interest
for the period beginning on and including the Issue Date to but excluding March 18, 2021. 
 (e)    If any Interest
Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related interest payment shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date.

 (f)    If the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption of any SP Security falls on a day that is not a
Business Day, payment of principal and interest on the applicable SP Security will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest will accrue for the period from and after such Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier
redemption. 
 (g)    Interest on each SP Security will be paid only to the Person in whose name such SP Security was
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for the applicable Interest Payment Date. 

Section 3.05.    Denominations, Minimum Purchase Amount. The SP Securities may be issued in minimum
denominations of $200,000 with increments of $200,000 thereafter. 
 Section 3.06.    Paying Agent.
(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, the Issuer hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon as the initial Paying Agent under the Indenture for the purpose of performing the functions of the Paying Agent with
respect to the SP Securities, and the Paying Agent hereby accepts such appointment. 
 (b)    The Paying Agent shall
exercise due care in performing the functions of the Paying Agent for the SP Securities. 
 (c)    The Issuer and the
Paying Agent shall, in connection with any Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date (other than a Redemption for Failure to List (as defined herein)), comply with the procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including the timely provision by the Paying
Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement to the Issuer. If the timely provision of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement is no longer necessary under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free and
clear of Spanish withholding tax or deduction on account of Spanish taxes, this Section 3.06(c) of this Second Supplemental Indenture shall cease to be in effect and the Issuer and the Paying Agent shall no longer be required to comply with the
procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including the timely provision by the Paying Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement to the Issuer with respect to any Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date occurring on or after the date on
which the timely provision of such Payment Statement is no longer necessary under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free and clear of Spanish withholding tax or deduction on account of Spanish taxes. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Paying Agent shall not be liable for any amounts owed to any person due to its failure to properly comply with the procedures referred to in this Section 3.06(c) of this Second Supplemental
Indenture except such as may result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Paying Agent or any of its agents or employees. 

(d)    So long as any principal amount of the SP Securities remains outstanding, the Issuer shall, insofar as it is
practicable, maintain, implement or arrange for the implementation of procedures to facilitate the timely provision by the Paying Agent of a duly executed and completed Payment Statement in respect of the payments referred to in this
Section 3.06 of this Second Supplemental Indenture under the SP Securities or the collection of any other documentation concerning the SP Securities that may be required under Spanish law to allow payments on the SP Securities to be made free
and clear of Spanish withholding tax. 

  
 47 

 (e)    The Paying Agent accepts its obligations set forth herein, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, including the following, to all of which the Issuer agrees: 

(i)    The Paying Agent shall be entitled to such compensation as may be agreed in writing with the Issuer
for all services rendered by the Paying Agent, and the Issuer promises to pay such compensation and to reimburse the Paying Agent for the reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder upon receipt of such invoices as the Issuer shall reasonably require. The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Paying Agent
for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claims or expenses (including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability and excluding taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the
income of the Paying Agent) incurred by the Paying Agent that arises out of or in connection with its acting as Paying Agent hereunder, except such as may result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Paying Agent or any
of its agents or employees. The Paying Agent shall incur no liability and shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Issuer for, or in respect of, any actions taken, omitted to be taken or suffered to be taken in good faith by the Paying Agent in
reliance upon (A) the written opinion of counsel satisfactory to it and upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuer or (B) written instructions from the Issuer. 

The Paying Agent shall notify the Company in writing of the commencement of any action or claim in respect of which
indemnification may be sought promptly after any officer of the Trustee becomes aware of such commencement (provided that the failure to make such notification shall not affect the Paying Agent’s rights hereunder) and the Company shall be
entitled to participate therein. The Paying Agent shall not be authorized to settle a claim without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(ii)    In acting under the Indenture and in connection with the SP Securities, the Paying Agent is acting
solely as agent of the Issuer and does not assume any obligations to, or relationship of agency or trust for or with, any of the Holders of such SP Securities. 

(iii)    The Paying Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action
taken or omitted to be taken or anything suffered by it in reliance upon the terms of the SP Securities, any notice, direction, certificate, affidavit, statement or other paper, document or communication reasonably believed by it to be genuine and
to have been approved or signed by the proper party or parties. 
 (iv)    Unless herein otherwise
specifically provided, any order, certificate, notice, request, direction or other communication from the Issuer made or given by it under any provision of the Indenture shall be sufficient if signed by any proper officer or an authorized person of
the Issuer. 
 (v)    The Paying Agent may, upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuer,
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and, except as otherwise provided herein, the Paying Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder. 
 (f)    (i) The Paying Agent may at any time resign as Paying Agent by giving written
notice to the Issuer of such intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become effective; provided, however, that such date shall not be earlier than 60 days after the receipt of such notice by the Issuer,
unless the Issuer agrees in writing to accept less notice. The Paying Agent may be removed (with or without cause) at any time by the filing with it of any instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer by any proper officer or an authorized
person thereof and specifying such removal and the date when it is intended to become effective, subject to the Company providing a copy of such notice to the Trustee. Such resignation or removal shall take effect only upon the date of the
appointment by the Issuer, as hereinafter provided, of a successor 

  
 48 

 
Paying Agent. If within 60 days after notice of resignation or removal has been given, a successor Paying Agent has not been appointed, the Paying Agent may petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint a successor Paying Agent. A successor Paying Agent shall be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer by any proper officer or an authorized person thereof and the successor Paying
Agent. Upon the appointment of a successor Paying Agent and acceptance by it of such appointment, the Paying Agent so superseded shall cease to be such Paying Agent hereunder. Upon its resignation or removal, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to
the payment by the Issuer of its compensation, if any is owed to it, for services rendered hereunder and to the reimbursement of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with the services rendered by it hereunder. 
 (ii)    Any successor Paying Agent
appointed hereunder shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Issuer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Paying Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with
all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities, duties and obligations of such predecessor with like effect as if originally named as such Paying Agent hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its charges and disbursements then
unpaid, shall thereupon become obliged to transfer and deliver, and such successor Paying Agent shall be entitled to receive, copies of any relevant records maintained by such predecessor Paying Agent. 

(iii)    Any Person into which the Paying Agent may be merged or converted or with which the Paying Agent
may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Paying Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Paying Agent, or all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Paying Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law and provided that it shall have an established place of business in The City of New York, be the successor Paying Agent under the
Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. Notice of any such merger, conversion, consolidation or sale shall forthwith be given to the Issuer within 30 days of such merger,
conversion, consolidation or sale. 
 Section 3.07.    Security Certificates 

(a)    The SP Securities shall initially be represented by one or more global certificates (the “Global
Certificates”) substantially in the form of Exhibit A (attached hereto), which shall be deposited with a custodian for the Depository and the SP Securities represented thereby will be registered in the name of a nominee of the Depository
(initially Cede & Co.), for the accounts of participants in the Depository. 
 (b)    SP Securities represented
by a Global Certificate may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only: (i) by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository, (ii) by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or to another nominee of the Depository, or
(iii) by the Depository or any such nominee to a successor Depository or a nominee of such successor Depository. 

(c)    Beneficial interests in any SP Securities represented by a Global Certificate will be exchangeable for SP
Securities represented by definitive certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) only if: (i) the Depository notifies the Issuer in writing that it is unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue to act as Depository or that it has
ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, in either case, a successor Depository is not appointed by the Issuer within 60 days after the date of such notice from the Depository,
(ii) the Issuer notifies the Trustee in writing that it has reasonably elected to cause the issuance of SP Securities represented by Definitive Certificates or (iii) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with
respect to the SP Securities. 
 (d)    Upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 3.07(c)(i),
(ii) or (iii) above, SP Securities represented by Definitive Certificates shall be (i) delivered by the Trustee in exchange for beneficial interest in SP Securities represented by Global Certificates and (ii) registered in such names,
and issued in such authorized denominations, as shall be requested by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with its customary procedures. 

  
 49 

 Section 3.08.    Redemption. (a) The provisions of Article
11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) will apply to the SP Securities. Any such redemption shall be in compliance with the Applicable Banking Regulations and, if required, the Issuer shall have obtained the prior consent
of the Regulator. The “Redemption Price” means, with respect to any SP Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby), an amount equal to 100% of their principal
amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The “Redemption Date” of any SP Securities to be redeemed will be any day fixed by the Issuer for redemption of such SP
Securities and specified in the applicable notice of redemption provided by the Issuer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.02 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby), provided, however, that in any case where the
Redemption Date shall not be a Business Day, then the SP Securities will not become due and payable and deposit of the Redemption Price will not be made on such Redemption Date, but the SP Securities will become due and payable and deposit of the
Redemption Price will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day with the same force and effect as if the SP Securities had become due and payable and the deposit of the Redemption Price had been made on the Redemption Date, and no
interest shall accrue on the amount payable on such Redemption Date or at such time for the period from and after such Redemption Date. 

(b)    All or part of the SP Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11
of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) at the option of the Issuer if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is
a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change, amendment, application or interpretation
becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the SP Securities, (i) the Issuer would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the SP Securities with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or
other governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Issuer
would not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on the SP Securities or the value of such deduction to the Issuer would be
reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, in the case of (i) above, no such notice to the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the
earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the SP Securities then due. 

(c)    If the SP Securities are not listed on an organized market in an OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to
the first Interest Payment Date, the Issuer may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice (ending on a day which is no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders in
accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) (which notice shall be irrevocable), redeem all (but not less than all) of the SP Securities at the Redemption Price (a “Redemption for
Failure to List”); provided that from and including the Issue Date of such SP Securities to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Issuer will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain such listing, as applicable. In the event
of an early redemption of the SP Securities for the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, if required by the relevant Spanish laws or regulations (including any binding rulings), the Issuer will withhold tax and will pay interest in respect
of the principal amount of the SP Securities redeemed net of the Spanish withholding tax applicable to such payments. If this were to occur, the Issuer will not pay Additional Amounts. 

(d)    All (but not less than all) of the SP Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the
terms of Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby) at the option of the Issuer if an Eligible Liabilities Event occurs on or after the Issue Date of the SP Securities.

 Section 3.10.    Agreement with
Respect to the Exercise of Spanish Bail-in Power. (a) Notwithstanding any other term of the SP Securities, the Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between
the Company and any Holder, by its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder (which, for the purposes of this Section 3.10, includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the SP Securities) acknowledges, accepts, consents to and agrees to
be bound by: (i) the exercise and effects of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, which may be imposed with or without any prior notice with respect to the SP
Securities, and may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: (1) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities; (2) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the
Amounts Due on the SP Securities into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Company or another Person (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of any such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment,
modification or variation of the terms of the SP Securities; (3) the cancellation of the SP Securities; (4) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the SP Securities or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the SP
Securities, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (ii) the variation of the terms of the SP Securities or the rights of Holders thereunder or under the Indenture, as
deemed necessary by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority. 

(b)    By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that neither a reduction or
cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Company or another Person, in each case as a result of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority with respect to the Company, nor the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution
Authority with respect to the SP Securities shall: (i) give rise to a default or event of default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Defaults) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture
Act; or (ii) be a default or an Event of Default with respect to the SP Securities or under the Indenture. By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder further acknowledges and agrees that no repayment or payment of Amounts Due on the
SP Securities shall become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority if, and to the extent that, such amounts have been reduced,
converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise. 
 (c)    By its acquisition of the SP
Securities, each Holder, to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee
shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority
with respect to the SP Securities. Additionally, by its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities: (i) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders with respect to any portion of the SP Securities that is written down, converted to equity and/or
cancelled under Section 5.12 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby); and (ii) the Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect to the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority; provided, however, that notwithstanding the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities, so long as any SP Securities remain Outstanding, there shall at all times be a trustee for the SP Securities in accordance with the Indenture, and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee
and the appointment of a successor trustee shall continue to be governed by the Indenture, including to the extent no additional supplemental indenture or amendment is agreed upon in the event the SP Securities remain Outstanding following the
completion of the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power. 

  
 51 

 (d)    By its acquisition of the SP Securities, each Holder shall be
deemed to have authorized, directed and requested the Depository and any direct participant therein or other intermediary through which it holds such SP Securities to take any and all necessary actions, if required, to implement the exercise of the
Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder. 

(e)    Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power by the Relevant Spanish
Resolution Authority with respect to the SP Securities, the Company or the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority (as the case may be) shall provide a written notice to the Depository as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power for purposes of notifying the Holders of such SP Securities. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. 

(f)    If the Issuer has elected to redeem the SP Securities but prior to the payment of the Redemption Price to Holders
the Relevant Spanish Resolution Authority exercises its Spanish Bail-in Power with respect to the SP Securities the relevant redemption notice shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force and
effect, there shall be no redemption and consequently no payment of the Redemption Price (and any accrued interest and Additional Amounts payable under Article 11 of the Original Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby)) will be due and
payable. 
 (g)    Upon the exercise of the Spanish Bail-in Power with respect
to the SP Securities which results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or such SP Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed
satisfied and discharged as to such series of SP Securities and such SP Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”. 

(h)    Each Holder that acquires SP Securities in the secondary market or otherwise shall be deemed to acknowledge and
agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in this Second Supplemental Indenture to the same extent as the Holders that acquire the SP Securities upon their initial issuance, including, without limitation, with respect to this
Section 3.10. 
 Section 3.11.    Notices. Any notice, communication or other document (other than a
notice, communication or other document delivered pursuant to the procedures set forth in Exhibit B, including a Payment Statement) required to be given to any person hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 1.05 of the Original
Indenture (as amended and supplemented hereby). Any notice hereunder given by telephone, telecopy or letter shall be deemed to be received when in the ordinary course of transmission or post, as the case may be, it would be received.

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SECURITIES 

1. General. (a) This security is one of a duly authorized issue of a series of debt securities of the Company, designated as its
BONOS SIMPLES PREFERENTES SEPTIEMBRE 2020-SEC6 (referred to as the “SP Securities”), limited to the aggregate principal amount of $800,000,000 (except as otherwise provided below) and issued or to be issued pursuant to an Indenture
(the “Base Indenture”) dated as of July 28, 2016 among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as trustee (together with any successor Trustee under the Indenture, the “Trustee”),
transfer agent and Paying Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Security Registrar, as amended and supplemented prior to the issuance hereof by a supplemental indenture dated September 18, 2020 among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon,
London Branch, as Trustee, transfer agent and Paying Agent and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Security Registrar (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture (as amended and supplemented by the Second
Supplemental Indenture), the “Indenture”). The terms and conditions of the Indenture shall have effect as if incorporated herein. All capitalized terms used in this SP Security but not otherwise defined herein are used as defined in
the Indenture and shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. References herein to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision of the Base Indenture shall refer to any such Article, Section or other subdivision of the Base
Indenture as amended and supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture. The holders of the SP Securities (each a “Holder”) will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions
of the Indenture and reference is made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the SP Securities and of the terms upon which
the SP Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

(b) The SP Securities are direct, unconditional, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank in
accordance with paragraph 17 hereof. 
 (c) The SP Securities will initially be sold in the form of one or more global
certificates representing the securities of this series in fully registered form without interest coupons (each a “Global Security”) deposited with The Bank of New York Mellon as custodian for the Depository. The SP Securities will
not be issued in bearer form. The SP Securities, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 3.05 of the Base Indenture. Any person in whose name a SP Security shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law) be treated at all times, and for all purposes, by the Company and the Trustee as the absolute owner of such SP Security, regardless of any notice of ownership, theft or loss or of any writing thereon. 

2. Payments and Paying Agencies. (a) All payments on the SP Securities shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States
of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 
 (b) (i)
Principal of this SP Security and interest (including Additional Amounts) due at maturity will be payable against surrender of such SP Security at the office of the Paying Agent in New York City in immediately available funds by transfer to a U.S.
dollar account maintained by the registered Holder with, a bank located in the United States. 
 (ii) Payment of interest
(including Additional Amounts) on this SP Security will be made to the persons in whose name such SP Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date, which shall be the end of the
15th calendar day next preceding the date on which interest is to be paid whether or not such day is a Business Day, notwithstanding the cancellation of such SP Security upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior
to such Interest Payment Date. 
 Any interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the SP Security which shall be payable, but
shall not be punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for such SP Security (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the relevant Regular
Record Date 

  
 5 

 
by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (A) or (B) below: 

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

(c) Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of 12 30-day months. 
 3. Additional Amounts. Any amounts to be paid by the Company with respect to each
SP Security shall be paid without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all present or future taxes or duties of whatever nature (“Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event any
such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied in respect of payment of interest (but not principal or premium) by or on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax, the
Company will pay to the Holder such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amount received by the Holder of such SP Security under the Indenture, after such withholding or deduction, shall equal the amount of interest, if any,
which would have been receivable by such Holder in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply: 

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

  
 6 

 (d) in respect of any SP Security presented for payment (where presentation
is required) by or on behalf of a Holder who would be able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant SP Security to another Paying Agent; 

(e) to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Holder if the Company does not receive any relevant information as may be required
by Spanish tax laws and regulations (including any binding rulings), including a duly executed and completed Payment Statement from the Paying Agent; or 

(f) in the event that the SP Security is redeemed pursuant to Section 11.08(b) of the Base Indenture. 

Additional Amounts will also not be paid with respect to any payment on any SP Security to any Holder who is a fiduciary, partnership, limited
liability company or Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for Spanish tax
purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, member of such partnership, interest holder in that limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts had it been a
Holder of such SP Security. 
 No Additional Amounts will be paid by the Company, the Trustee or any paying agent on account of any
withholding or deduction from a payment on, or in respect of, the SP Securities where such withholding or deduction is imposed pursuant to any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections 1471-1474 of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and the Kingdom of Spain or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA, or any law, regulation
or other official guidance enacted or issued in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement. 

For the purposes of (b) above, the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which such payment
first becomes due and payable, except that if the full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or before such due date, it means the first date on which the full amount of such moneys having been so received and
made available for payment to Holders, notice to that effect is duly given to the Holders in accordance with the Indenture. 
 4.
Redemption for Taxation or Listing Reasons; Redemption for Eligible Liabilities Event 
 (a) All or part of the SP Securities may be
redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Base Indenture at the option of the Company if, as the result of any change in or any amendment to the laws or regulations of the Kingdom of Spain (including any
treaty to which the Kingdom of Spain is a party) or any political subdivision or any authority or agency thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change,
amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective on or after September 18, 2020 (the Issue Date of the SP Securities), (i) the Company would become obligated to pay Additional Amounts in making any payments under the SP Securities
with respect thereto as a result of any taxes, levies, imposts or other governmental charges imposed (whether by way of withholding or deduction or otherwise) by or for the account of the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority
thereof or therein having the power to tax, (ii) the Company would not be entitled to claim a deduction in computing tax liabilities in the Kingdom of Spain in respect of any interest to be paid on the next Interest Payment Date on the SP
Securities or the value of such deduction to the Company would be reduced, or (iii) the applicable tax treatment of the SP Securities would be materially affected; provided that, (x) in the case of (i) above, no such notice to
the Trustee of the redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to deduct or withhold tax or pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the SP Securities then due,
(y) the redemption shall be in compliance with the Applicable Banking Regulations (as defined herein), and (z) if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator (as defined herein). 

Prior to any notice of redemption of the SP Securities pursuant to this paragraph 4(a), the Company shall provide the Trustee with (i) an
Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such 

  
 7 

 
redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company to redeem such SP Securities pursuant to this
paragraph 4(a) have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding paragraph prevail. 

(b) If the SP Securities are not listed on an organized market in an OECD country by the date that is 45 days prior to the first Interest
Payment Date on such SP Securities, the Company may, at its option and having given no less than 15 days’ notice (ending on a day which is no later than the Business Day immediately preceding such first Interest Payment Date) to the Holders in
accordance with Article 11 of the Base Indenture (which notice shall be irrevocable), redeem all (but not less than all) of the Outstanding SP Securities at the Redemption Price; provided that (i) from and including
September 18, 2020 (the Issue Date of the SP Securities) to and including such Interest Payment Date, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain such listing, as applicable, (ii) the redemption shall be in compliance
with the Applicable Banking Regulations, and (iii) if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator. In the event of an early redemption of the SP Securities for the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, if
required by the relevant Spanish laws or regulations (including any binding rulings), the Company will withhold tax and will pay interest in respect of the principal amount of the SP Securities redeemed net of the Spanish withholding tax applicable
to such payments. If this were to occur, the Company will not pay Additional Amounts. 
 (c) All (but not less than all) of the SP
Securities may be redeemed at the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms of Article 11 of the Base Indenture at the option of the Company if an Eligible Liabilities Event (as defined herein) occurs on or after September 18, 2020 (the
Issue Date of the SP Securities); provided that, (i) the redemption shall be in compliance with the Applicable Banking Regulations, and (ii) if required, the Company shall have obtained the prior consent of the Regulator. 

Prior to any notice of redemption of the SP Securities pursuant to this paragraph 4(c), the Company shall provide the Trustee with (i) an
Officer’s Certificate of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of circumstances showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Company to redeem
such SP Securities pursuant to this paragraph 4(c) have been satisfied; and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the circumstances referred to in the preceding paragraph prevail. 

“Applicable Banking Regulations” means at any time the laws, regulations, requirements, guidelines and policies relating to
capital adequacy, resolution and/or solvency then applicable to the Company and/or the Group including, without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, CRD V (as defined herein), the BRRD (as defined herein), the SRM Regulation (as defined
herein) and those laws, regulations, requirements, guidelines and policies relating to capital adequacy, resolution and/or solvency then in effect in the Kingdom of Spain (whether or not such regulations, requirements, guidelines or policies have
the force of law and whether or not they are applied generally or specifically to the Company and/or the Group).

results in the redemption, cancellation, or the conversion into other securities, of all the Amounts Due on the SP Securities or such SP Securities otherwise ceasing to be outstanding, the Indenture shall be deemed satisfied and discharged as to
such series of SP Securities and such SP Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding”.
