 NOW THIS

	1.	 Subject as hereinafter provided and unless there is something in the subject matter or context inconsistent
therewith, all words and expressions defined in the Subsisting Trust Deeds shall have the same meanings in this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed. 

  

	2.	 Save: 

  

	 	(a)	 in relation to all Series of Notes issued during the period up to and including the day last preceding the date
of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed; 

  

	 	(b)	 in relation to any Notes issued on or after the date of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed so as to be
consolidated and form a single series with the Notes of any Series issued during the period up to and including the day last preceding the date of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed; and 

  
 5 

	 	(c)	 for the purpose (where necessary) of construing the provisions of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed,

 with effect on and from the date of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed: 

 

	 	(i)	 the Principal Trust Deed (as previously modified, restated and supplemented) is hereby modified and restated in
such manner as would result in the Principal Trust Deed being in the form set out in the Schedule hereto; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 the provisions of the Principal Trust Deed (as previously modified, restated and supplemented) insofar as the
same still have effect shall cease to have effect and in lieu thereof the provisions of the Principal Trust Deed as so further modified (and being in the form set out in the Schedule hereto) shall have effect. 

 

	3.	 The Subsisting Trust Deeds and this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed shall henceforth be read and construed
together as one trust deed. 

  

	4.	 A memorandum of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed shall be endorsed by the Trustee on the original of the

	5.	 This Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed and any non-contractual
obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law. 

  

	6.	 Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that the courts of England are to have jurisdiction to settle any
disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed (including a dispute relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it) and that
accordingly any suit, action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with these presents (together referred to as Proceedings) may be brought in the courts of England, including any Proceedings relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to raise any objection which
it may have now or subsequently to the laying of the venue of any Proceedings in the courts of England and any claim that any Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that a judgment
in any Proceedings brought in the courts of England shall be conclusive and binding upon it and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Nothing in this Clause shall limit any right to take Proceedings against any of the parties
hereto in any other court of competent jurisdiction (outside the Contracting States, as defined in Section 1(3) of the Civil Jurisdiction and Judgments Act 1982), nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions preclude the
taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not. 

  

	7.	 Each of BATHTN, BATNF and BATCAP irrevocably and unconditionally appoints British American Tobacco at its
registered office at Globe House, 4 Temple Place, London WC2R 2PG and in the event of its ceasing so to act will appoint such other person as the Trustee may approve and as BATHTN, BATNF or BATCAP, as the case may be, may nominate in writing to the
Trustee for the purpose to accept service of process on its behalf in England in respect of any Proceedings. Each of BATHTN, BATNF and BATCAP: 

  

	 	(a)	 agrees to procure that, so long as any Notes issued by it remain liable to prescription, there shall be in
force an appointment of such a person approved by the Trustee with an office in London with authority to accept service as aforesaid; 

  
 6 

	 	(b)	 agrees that failure by any such person to give notice of such service of process to BATHTN, BATNF or BATCAP, as
the case may be, shall not impair the validity of such service or of any judgment based thereon; and 

  

	 	(c)	 agrees that nothing in this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed shall affect the right to serve process in any
other manner permitted by law. 

  

	8.	 This Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, all of
which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same deed and any party to this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed may enter into the same by executing and delivering a counterpart. 

 

	9.	 A person who is not a party to this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed has no right under the Contracts (Rights
of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from that Act. 

IN WITNESS whereof this Thirtieth Supplemental Trust Deed has been executed as a deed by each of the parties hereto and delivered on the date
first stated above.

apply) payment of which has been so withheld or refused (both before and after any judgment or other order of a court of competent jurisdiction) at the rates aforesaid (or, if higher, the rate of interest on judgment debts for the time being

Couponholders and itself in accordance with this Trust Deed. 
  

	2.3	 Trustee’s requirements regarding Paying Agents

Notes) and so that the same shall be consolidated and form a single series with the outstanding Notes of a particular Series.

The relevant Issuer will pay any stamp, issue, documentary or other taxes and duties, including interest and penalties, payable in the United
Kingdom, The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg in respect of the creation, issue and offering of the Notes and the Coupons and the execution or delivery of this Trust Deed. The relevant Issuer will also indemnify the Trustee, the Noteholders and
the Couponholders from and against all stamp, issue, documentary or other taxes paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with any action taken by or on behalf of the Trustee or, as the case may be, the Noteholders or the Couponholders
to enforce the relevant Issuer’s or any Guarantor’s obligations under this Trust Deed. 
  

	4.2	 Change of Taxing Jurisdiction 

If the relevant Issuer or a Guarantor becomes subject generally to the taxing jurisdiction of a territory or an authority of or in that
territory having power to tax other than or in addition to the United Kingdom (in the case of BATIF and British American Tobacco) or The Netherlands (in the case of BATHTN and BATNF) or the United States (in the case of BATCAP) or any such authority
of or in such territory then such Issuer or, as the case may be, the relevant Guarantor will (unless the Trustee otherwise agrees) give the Trustee an undertaking satisfactory to the Trustee in terms corresponding to the terms of Condition 7 with
the substitution for, or (as the case may require) the addition to, the references in that Condition to the United Kingdom (in the case of BATIF and British American 

  
 23 

 Tobacco), The Netherlands (in the case of BATHTN and BATNF) or the United States (in the
case of BATCAP) of references to that other or additional territory or authority to whose taxing jurisdiction such Issuer or the relevant Guarantor has become so subject. In such event this Trust Deed and the Notes will be read accordingly. 

 

	5.	 GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY 

 

	5.1	 Guarantee 

The Guarantors, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee that, if the relevant Issuer does not pay any sum payable by
it under this Trust Deed by the time and on the date specified for such payment (whether on the normal due date, on acceleration or otherwise), the Guarantors will pay that sum to or to the order of the Trustee, in the manner provided in Clause 2.2
(or if in respect of sums due under Clause 9, in London in pounds sterling in immediately available funds) before close of business on that date in the city to which payment is so to be made. Clause 2.2(a), (b) and (c) will apply (with
consequential amendments as necessary) to such payments other than those in respect of sums due under Clause 9. All payments under this Trust Deed by the Guarantors will be made subject to the provisions of Clause 4.2, Condition 7 and Subclause 5.9
of this Clause. 
  

	5.2	 Guarantor(s) as Principal Debtor 

As between the Guarantors and the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Couponholders but without affecting the relevant Issuer’s obligations,
each of the Guarantors will be liable under this Clause as if it were the sole principal debtor and not merely a surety. Accordingly, it will not be discharged, nor will its liability be affected, by anything which would not discharge it or affect
its liability if it were the sole principal debtor (including (a) any time, indulgence, waiver or consent at any time given to the relevant Issuer or any other person, (b) any amendment to any other provisions of this Trust Deed or to the
Conditions or to any security or other guarantee or indemnity, (c) the making or absence of any demand on the relevant Issuer or any other person for payment, (d) the enforcement or absence of enforcement of this Trust Deed or of any
security or other guarantee or indemnity, (e) the taking, existence or release of any security, guarantee or indemnity, (f) the dissolution, amalgamation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the relevant Issuer or any other person or
(g) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of or any defect in any provision of this Trust Deed or any of the relevant Issuer’s obligations under any of them). 

 

	5.3	 Guarantor’s Obligations Continuing 

Each of the Guarantors’ obligations under this Trust Deed are and will remain in full force and effect by way of continuing security until
no sum remains payable under this Trust Deed. Furthermore, the obligations of the Guarantors are additional to, and not instead of, any security or other guarantee or indemnity at any time existing in favour of any person, whether from the
Guarantors or otherwise and may be enforced without first having recourse to the relevant Issuer, any other person, any security or any other guarantee or indemnity. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives (a) any right which it has whether
by virtue of the droit de discussion or otherwise to require that recourse be had to the assets of the relevant Issuer before any claim is enforced against it and (b) all notices and demands of any kind. 

 

	5.4	 Exercise of Guarantor’s Rights 

So long as any sum remains due and outstanding under this Trust Deed: 
  

	 	(a)	 any right of a Guarantor, by reason of the performance of any of its obligations under this Clause, to be
indemnified by the relevant Issuer or to take the benefit of or to enforce any security or other guarantee or indemnity will be exercised and enforced by such Guarantor only in such manner and on such terms as the Trustee may require or approve; and

  
 24 

	 	(b)	 any amount received or recovered by a Guarantor (a) as a result of any exercise of any such right or
(b) in the dissolution, amalgamation, reconstruction or reorganisation of the relevant Issuer will be immediately paid to the Trustee and the Trustee will hold it on the trusts set out in Clause 6.1. 

 

	5.5	 Suspense Account 

Any amount received or recovered by the Trustee (otherwise than as a result of a payment by the relevant Issuer to the Trustee in accordance
with Clause 2) in respect of any sum payable by the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed may be placed in a suspense account and kept there for so long as the Trustee thinks fit. 

 

	5.6	 Avoidance of Payments 

If any payment received by the Trustee or any Noteholder or Couponholder pursuant to the provisions of this Trust Deed is, on the subsequent
bankruptcy or insolvency of the relevant Issuer, avoided under any laws related to bankruptcy or insolvency, such payment will not be considered as having discharged or diminished the liability of the Guarantors and this Guarantee will continue to
apply as if such payment had at all times remained owing by the relevant Issuer. 
  

	5.7	 Debts of Issuer 

If any moneys become payable by the Guarantors under this Guarantee, the relevant Issuer will not (except in the event of the liquidation of
the relevant Issuer), so long as any such moneys remain unpaid, pay any moneys for the time being due from the relevant Issuer to any of the Guarantors. 
  

	5.8	 Indemnity 

As separate, independent and alternative stipulations, each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably agrees (a) that any sum
which, although expressed to be payable by the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed, is for any reason (whether or not now existing and whether or not now known or becoming known to the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee or any Noteholder
or Couponholder) not recoverable from a Guarantor on the basis of a guarantee will nevertheless be recoverable from it as if it were the sole principal debtor and will be paid by it to the Trustee on demand and (b) as a primary obligation to
indemnify the Trustee, each Noteholder and each Couponholder against any loss suffered by it as a result of (i) any sum expressed to be payable by the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed not being paid on the date and otherwise in the manner
specified in this Trust Deed or (ii) any payment obligation of the relevant Issuer under this Trust Deed being or becoming void, voidable or unenforceable for any reason (whether or not now existing and whether or not now known or becoming
known to the Trustee, any Noteholder or any Couponholder), the amount of that loss being the amount expressed to be payable by the relevant Issuer in respect of the relevant sum. 

 

	5.9	 Taxes 

  

	 	(a)	 All payments of principal and interest by the Guarantors will be made without withholding or deduction for or
on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges (together, Taxes) of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the United Kingdom (in the case of BATIF and
British American Tobacco), The Netherlands (in the case of BATHTN and BATNF) and the United States (in the case of BATCAP) or any political subdivision thereof or any authority 

  
 25 

	 	thereof or therein having power to levy the same unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the relevant Guarantor shall (subject as provided below) pay such amounts (the Additional
Amounts) as will result in the receipt by the Noteholders and the Couponholders of such amounts as would have been received by them had no such Taxes been required to be withheld or deducted. 

 

	 	(b)	 No Additional Amounts will be payable by BATIF or British American Tobacco in respect of Notes or Coupons:

  

	 	(i)	 presented for payment by or on behalf of a Noteholder or Couponholder who is liable for such withheld or
deducted Taxes by reason of his having some connection with the United Kingdom other than the mere holding of a Note or Coupon; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 to, or to a third party on behalf of, a holder if such withholding or deduction may be avoided by complying
with any statutory requirement or by making a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to any authority of or in the United Kingdom, unless such holder proves that he is not entitled
so to comply or to make such declaration or claim; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 presented for payment in the United Kingdom; or 

 

	 	(iv)	 presented for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or
Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the Relevant Date. 

 

	 	(c)	 No Additional Amounts will be payable by BATHTN or BATNF in respect of Notes or Coupons: 

 

	 	(i)	 presented for payment by or on behalf of a Noteholder or Couponholder who is liable for such withheld or
deducted Taxes by reason of his having some connection with The Netherlands other than the mere holding of a Note or Coupon; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 to, or to a third party on behalf of, a holder if such withholding or deduction may be avoided by complying
with any statutory requirement or by making a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to any authority of or in The Netherlands, unless such holder proves that he is not entitled so
to comply or to make such declaration or claim; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 presented for payment in The Netherlands; or 

 

	 	(iv)	 presented for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or
Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the Relevant Date. 

 

	 	(d)	 In relation to BATCAP, the obligations set out in subclause 5.9(a) above shall not apply to:

  

	 	(i)	 any such Taxes which would not have been so imposed but for (i) the existence of any present or former
connection between the holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of or possessor of a power over such holder, if such holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership or a corporation) and the United States, including,
without limitation, such holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been engaged in a trade or business therein or being or having been
present therein, or having or having had a permanent establishment therein, or (ii) such holder’s present or former status 

  
 26 

	 	as a personal holding company, passive foreign investment company, controlled foreign corporation or private foundation or other tax-exempt organisation (in each case, for United
States federal income tax purposes), or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income taxes; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 any such Taxes which would not have been so imposed but for the presentation of a Note or Coupon for payment
more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the
Relevant Date; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property Taxes or any similar Taxes; or

  

	 	(iv)	 any such Taxes which would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information,
documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder of a Note or Coupon, if such compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the United States
Treasury Department or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Taxes; or 

  

	 	(v)	 any such Taxes which are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments in respect of a Note
or Coupon; or 

  

	 	(vi)	 any such Taxes imposed on interest received by a 10 per cent. shareholder of the Issuer within the meaning
of Section 871(h)(3)(B) or Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) (or any amended or successor provisions); or 

 

	 	(vii)	 any such Taxes imposed by reason of a holder of a Note or Coupon being or having been a bank receiving payments
on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions); or 

 

	 	(viii)	 any backup withholding imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor
provisions); or 

  

	 	(ix)	 any such Taxes imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor
provisions); and 

  

	 	(x)	 any combination of clauses (i) to (ix) above; 

nor will any Additional Amounts be paid in respect of a Note or Coupon to any holder who is not a United States Alien or to any United States
Alien who is a fiduciary or partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such a partnership or the beneficial owner would not
have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of such Note or Coupon. The term “United States Alien” means any person who, for United States federal income tax
purposes, is a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust or a foreign partnership any partner of
which is for United States federal income tax purposes a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or
trust or any such foreign partnership.

	7.2	 The Trustee may deposit moneys in respect of the Notes in its name in an account at such bank or other
financial institution as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, think fit. If that bank or financial institution is the Trustee or a subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, the Trustee need only account for an amount of
interest equal to the amount of interest which would, at then current rates, be payable by it on such a deposit to an independent customer. 

  
 28 

	7.3	 The parties acknowledge and agree that in the event that any deposits in respect of the Notes are held by a
bank or a financial institution in the name of the Trustee and the interest rate in respect of certain currencies is a negative value such that the application thereof would result in amounts being debited from funds held by such bank or financial
institution (“negative interest”), the Trustee shall not be liable to make up any shortfall or be liable for any loss. 

  

	7.4	 The Trustee may at its discretion accumulate such deposits and the resulting interest and other income derived
thereon. The accumulated deposits shall be applied under Clause 6. All interest and other income deriving from such deposits shall be applied first in payment or satisfaction of all amounts then due and unpaid under Clause 6 to the Trustee and
otherwise held for the benefit of and paid to the Noteholders of such Series or the holders of the related Coupons, as the case may be.

	9.	 REMUNERATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE TRUSTEE 

 

	9.1	 Normal Remuneration 

So long as the Notes remain outstanding the relevant Issuer will pay the Trustee as remuneration for its services as Trustee such sum on such
dates in each case as they may from time to time agree. Such remuneration will accrue from day to day from the date of this Deed or as otherwise agreed between the relevant Issuer, and the Trustee from time to time and shall be payable on such dates
as they may from time to time agree. Such remuneration shall accrue from day to day and be payable (in priority to payments to Noteholders and Couponholders) up to and including the date when, all the Notes having become due for redemption, the
moneys payable in respect thereof have been paid to the Agent or the Trustee. However, if any payment to a Noteholder or Couponholder of moneys due in respect of any Note or Coupon is improperly withheld or refused, such remuneration will again
accrue as from the date of such withholding or refusal until payment to such Noteholder or Couponholder is duly made. 
  

	9.2	 Extra Remuneration 

If an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default shall have occurred the relevant Issuer hereby agrees that the Trustee shall be entitled
to be paid additional remuneration, which may be calculated at its normal hourly rates in force from time to time. In any other case, if the Trustee finds it expedient or necessary or is requested by the relevant Issuer to undertake duties which
they both agree to be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the Trustee’s normal duties under this Trust Deed, the relevant Issuer will pay such additional remuneration as they may agree (which may be calculated by
reference to the Trustee’s normal hourly rates in force from time to time) or, in the event of the Trustee and the relevant Issuer failing to agree as to any of the matters in this Subclause (or as to such sums referred to in Subclause 9.1), as
determined by an investment bank or other person (acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator) selected by the Trustee and approved by the relevant Issuer or, failing such approval, nominated by the President for the time being of The Law Society
of England and Wales. The expenses involved in such nomination and such investment bank’s or other person’s fee will be payable by the relevant Issuer. The determination of such investment bank or other person will be conclusive and
binding on the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Couponholders. 
  

	9.3	 Expenses 

The relevant Issuer will also on demand by the Trustee pay or discharge all liabilities and expenses reasonably incurred by the Trustee in the
preparation and execution of this Trust Deed and the performance of its functions under this Trust Deed including, but not limited to, legal and travelling expenses and any stamp, documentary or other taxes or duties paid by the Trustee in
connection with any legal proceedings reasonably brought or contemplated by the Trustee against the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor to enforce any provision of, or resolving any doubt concerning, or for any other purpose in relation to this Trust
Deed. 
  

  
 31 

	9.4	 Indemnity 

The relevant Issuer will indemnify the Trustee in respect of all liabilities and expenses properly incurred by it or by anyone appointed by it
or to whom any of its functions hereunder may be delegated by it in the carrying out of its functions hereunder and against any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand or expense (including, but not limited to, all costs, charges and expenses
paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which any of them may incur or which may be made against any of them arising out of or in relation to or in connection with, its appointment or the exercise of its functions hereunder.

  

	9.5	 Rate of Interest 

All amounts due and payable pursuant to Subclauses 9.3 and 9.4 shall be payable by the relevant Issuer on the date specified in a demand in
writing by the Trustee. The rate of interest applicable to such payments shall be a rate equivalent to the Trustee’s cost of borrowing and interest shall accrue: 
  

	 	(a)	 in the case of payments made by the Trustee before the date of such written demand from the date on which the
payment was made or such later date as specified in such written demand; or 

  

	 	(b)	 in the case of payments made by the Trustee on or after the date of the written demand, from the date specified
in such written demand, which date shall not be a date earlier than the date such payments are made. 

 A certificate from
the Trustee as to the Trustee’s cost of borrowing on any particular date shall be conclusive and binding on the relevant Issuer. All remuneration payable to the Trustee shall carry interest at the rate specified in this clause 9.5 from the date
thereof. 
  

	9.6	 Continuing Effect 

Subclauses 9.3 and 9.4 will continue in full force and effect as regards the Trustee even if it no longer is Trustee. 

 

	9.7	 Apportionment 

The Trustee shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to determine in respect of which Series of Notes any liabilities, costs, charges and
expenses incurred under this Trust Deed have been incurred or to allocate any such liabilities, costs, charges and expenses between the Notes of more than one Series. 
  

	9.8	 No withholding or deduction 

All payments to be made by the relevant Issuer to the Trustee under clause 9 of this Trust Deed shall be made free and clear of, and without
withholding or deduction for, any taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within any relevant jurisdiction or any authority therein or thereof having power to tax,
unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the relevant Issuer shall pay such additional amounts as will, after such deduction or withholding has been made, leave the Trustee with the full amount which would have been
received by it had no such withholding or deduction been required. 
  

  
 32 

	10.	 PROVISIONS SUPPLEMENTAL TO THE TRUSTEE ACTS 

 

	10.1	 Advice 

The Trustee may act on the opinion or advice of, or information obtained from, any expert and will not be responsible to anyone for any loss
occasioned by so acting. Any such opinion, advice or information may be sent or obtained by letter, telex or fax and the Trustee will not be liable to anyone for acting in good faith on any opinion, advice or information purporting to be conveyed by
such means even if it contains some error or is not authentic. 
  

	10.2	 Trustee to Assume Performance 

The Trustee need not notify anyone of the execution of this Trust Deed or do anything to find out if an Event of Default or Potential Event of
Default has occurred. Until it has actual knowledge or express notice to the contrary, the Trustee may assume that no such event has occurred and that the relevant Issuer and the Guarantors are performing all their obligations under this Trust Deed.

  

	10.3	 Resolutions of Noteholders 

The Trustee will not be responsible for having acted in good faith on a resolution in writing or any resolution purporting to have been passed
at a meeting of Noteholders in respect of which minutes have been made and signed or any Extraordinary Resolution passed by way of electronic consents received through the relevant Clearing System(s) in accordance with this Trust Deed even if it is
later found that there was a defect in the constitution of the meeting or the passing of the resolution, (in the case of a resolution in writing) that not all the holders had signed the resolution or (in the case of an Extraordinary Resolution
passed by electronic consents received through the relevant Clearing System(s)) it was not approved by the requisite number of Noteholders or that the resolution was not valid or binding on the Noteholders or the Couponholders. 

 

	10.4	 Certificate signed by Directors 

If the Trustee, in the exercise of its functions, requires to be satisfied or to have information as to any fact or the expediency of any act,
it may call for and accept as sufficient evidence of that fact or the expediency of that act a certificate signed by any two Directors or any one Director and the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor (as the case
may be) as to that fact or to the effect that, in their opinion, that act is expedient and the Trustee need not call for further evidence and will not be responsible for any loss occasioned by acting on such a certificate. 

 

	10.5	 Deposit of Documents

liability, cost, claim, action, demand, expense or inconvenience which may result from their exercise or non-exercise. 

  
 33 

	10.7	 Agents 

Whenever it considers it expedient in the interests of the Noteholders, the Trustee may, in the conduct of its trust business, instead of
acting personally, employ and pay an agent selected by it, whether or not a lawyer or other professional person, to transact or conduct, or concur in transacting or conducting, any business and to do or concur in doing all acts required to be done
by the Trustee (including the receipt and payment of money). If the Trustee exercises reasonable care in selecting such agent, the Trustee will not be responsible to anyone for any misconduct or omission by any such agent so employed by it or be
bound to supervise the proceedings or acts of any such agent. 
  

	10.8	 Delegation 

Whenever it considers it expedient in the interests of the Noteholders, the Trustee may delegate to any person on any terms (including power to
sub-delegate) all or any of its functions. If the Trustee exercises reasonable care in selecting such delegate, it will not have any obligation to supervise such delegate or be responsible for any loss,
liability, cost, claim, action, demand or expense incurred by reason of any misconduct or default by any such delegate or sub-delegate. 

 

	10.9	 Forged Bonds 

The Trustee will not be liable to the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor or any Noteholder or Couponholder by reason of having accepted as valid
or not having rejected any Note or Coupon purporting to be such and later found to be forged or not authentic. 
  

	10.10	 Confidentiality 

Unless ordered to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction the Trustee shall not be required to disclose to any Noteholder or Couponholder
any confidential, financial or other information made available to the Trustee by the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor or any other person. 
  

	10.11	 Determinations Conclusive 

As between itself and the Noteholders and Couponholders the Trustee may determine all questions and doubts arising in relation to any of the
provisions of this Trust Deed. Such determinations, whether made upon such a question actually raised or implied in the acts or proceedings of the Trustee, will be conclusive and shall bind the Trustee, the Noteholders and the Couponholders. 

 

	10.12	 Currency Conversion 

Where it is necessary or desirable to convert any sum from one currency to another, it will (unless otherwise provided hereby or required by
law) be converted at such rate or rates, in accordance with such method and as at such date as may reasonably be specified by the Trustee but having regard to current rates of exchange, if available. Any rate, method and date so specified will be
binding on the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors, the Noteholders and the Couponholders. 
  

	10.13	 Events of Default 

The Trustee may determine whether or not an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default is in its opinion capable of remedy and/or
materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders. Any such determination will be conclusive and binding on the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors, the Noteholders and the Couponholders. 

 

	10.14	 Payment for and Delivery of Notes 

The Trustee will not be responsible for the receipt or application by the relevant Issuer of the proceeds of the issue of the Notes, any
exchange of Notes or the delivery of Notes to the persons entitled to them. 
  

  
 34 

	10.15	 Notes held by the Issuer etc 

In the absence of knowledge or express notice to the contrary, the Trustee may assume without enquiry (other than requesting a certificate
under Clause 8(k)) that no Notes are for the time being held by or on behalf of the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors or their respective subsidiaries. 
  

	10.16	 Interests of Noteholders as a class 

In connection with the exercise by it of any of its trusts, powers, authorities or discretions under this Trust Deed (including, without
limitation, any modification, waiver, authorisation or determination), the Trustee shall have regard to the general interests of the Noteholders as a class but shall not have regard to any interests arising from circumstances particular to
individual Noteholders or Couponholders (whatever their number) and, in particular but without limitation, shall not have regard to the consequences of such exercise for individual Noteholders or Couponholders (whatever their number) resulting from
their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or otherwise connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular territory or any political sub-division thereof and the Trustee shall not be
entitled to require, nor shall any Noteholder or Couponholder be entitled to claim, from the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee or any other person any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequence of any such exercise upon
individual Noteholders or Couponholders except to the extent already provided for in Condition 7 and/or any undertaking given in addition thereto or in substitution therefor under this Trust Deed. 

 

	10.17	 Certificate of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg 

The Trustee may call for and rely on any record and/or document and/or evidence and/or information and/or certification to be issued or given
by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (a) as to the nominal amount of Notes represented by a Global Note standing to the account of any person and/or (b) in relation to any determination of the nominal amount of Notes represented by a
NGN. Any such certificate or other document shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes. Any such certificate or other document may comprise any form of statement or print out of electronic records provided by
the relevant clearing system (including Euroclear’s EUCLID or Clearstream, Luxembourg’s Creation Online system) in accordance with its usual procedures. The Trustee shall not be liable to any person by reason of having accepted as valid or
not having rejected any record and/or document and/or evidence and/or information and/or certification to such effect purporting to be issued or given by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg and subsequently found to be forged or not authentic. 

 

	10.18	 Trustee not bound to act 

Save as otherwise expressly provided in this Trust Deed, the Trustee shall have absolute and uncontrolled discretion as to the exercise of the
discretions hereby vested in the Trustee, but, whenever the Trustee is under the provisions of this Trust Deed bound to act at the request or direction of the Noteholders, the Trustee shall nevertheless not be so bound unless first indemnified
and/or secured and/or prefunded to its satisfaction against all proceedings, claims and demands to which it may render itself liable and all costs, charges, expenses and liabilities which it may incur by so doing, including the cost of its
management’s time and/or other internal resources, calculated using its normal hourly rates in force from time to time.

regulation. 
  

  
 35 

	10.20	 Trustee’s own funds 

Nothing contained in this Trust Deed shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in
the performance of its duties or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion hereunder if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not assured to
it. 
  

	10.21	 Trustee entitled to evaluate risk 

When determining whether an indemnity or any security is satisfactory to it, the Trustee shall be entitled to evaluate its risk in given
circumstances by considering the worst-case scenario and, for this purpose, it may take into account, without limitation, the potential costs of defending or commencing proceedings in England or elsewhere and the risk however remote, of any award of
damages against it in England or elsewhere. 
  

	10.22	 Noteholder indemnities 

The Trustee shall be entitled to require that any indemnity or security given to it by the Noteholders or any of them be given on a joint and
several basis and be supported by evidence satisfactory to it as to the financial standing and creditworthiness of each counterparty and/or as to the value of the security and an opinion as to the capacity, power and authority of each counterparty
and/or the validity and effectiveness of the security. 
  

	11.	 TRUSTEE LIABLE FOR NEGLIGENCE 

 

	11.1	 The duty of care contained in Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not apply to this Trust Deed.
However, if the Trustee fails to show the degree of care and diligence required of it as trustee, nothing in this Trust Deed shall relieve or indemnify it for, from or against any liability which would otherwise attach to it in respect of any
negligence, wilful default or breach of trust of which it may be guilty. 

  

	11.2	 Notwithstanding any provision of these presents to the contrary, neither party shall in any event be liable
for: 

  

	 	(a)	 loss of profit, loss of business, loss of goodwill, loss of opportunity, whether direct or indirect; and

  

	 	(b)	 special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, 

whether or not foreseeable, whether or not such party can reasonably be regarded as having assumed responsibility at the time this Trust Deed
is entered into, even if such party has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage, unless the claim for loss or damage is made in respect of fraud on the part of such party. 

 

	12.	 WAIVER AND PROOF OF DEFAULT 

 

	12.1	 Waiver 

The Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders or the Couponholders and without prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent
breach, from time to time and at any time, if in its opinion the interests of the Noteholders will not be materially prejudiced thereby, on such terms as seem expedient to it, waive or authorise any breach or proposed breach by the relevant Issuer
or any Guarantor of this Trust Deed or the Conditions or determine that any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default will not be treated as such provided that the Trustee will not do so in contravention 

 

  
 36 

 of an express direction given by an Extraordinary Resolution or a request made pursuant to
Condition 9(a). No such direction or request will affect a previous waiver, authorisation or determination. Any such waiver, authorisation or determination will be binding on the Noteholders and the Couponholders and, if the Trustee so requires,
will be notified to the Noteholders as soon as practicable. 
  

	12.2	 Proof of Default 

Proof that the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor has failed to pay a sum due to the holder of any Note or Coupon will (unless the contrary be
proved) be sufficient evidence that it has made the same default as regards all other Notes or Coupons which are then payable. 
  

	13.	 TRUSTEE CONTRACTING WITH THE ISSUER AND THE GUARANTORS 

Neither the Trustee nor any director or officer or holding company, subsidiary or associated company of a corporation acting as a trustee under
this Trust Deed shall by reason of its or his fiduciary position be in any way precluded from: 
  

	 	(a)	 entering into or being interested in any contract or financial or other transaction or arrangement with the
relevant Issuer or any of the Guarantors or any person or body corporate associated with the relevant Issuer or any of the Guarantors (including without limitation any contract, transaction or arrangement of a banking or insurance nature or any
contract, transaction or arrangement in relation to the making of loans or the provision of financial facilities or financial advice to, or the purchase, placing or underwriting of or the subscribing or procuring subscriptions for or otherwise
acquiring, holding or dealing with, or acting as paying agent in respect of, the Notes or any other notes, bonds, stocks, shares, debenture stock, debentures or other securities of, any Issuer or any person or body corporate associated as
aforesaid); or 

  

	 	(b)	 accepting or holding the trusteeship of any other trust deed constituting or securing any other securities
issued by or relating to the relevant Issuer or any of the Guarantors or any such person or body corporate so associated or any other office of profit under the relevant Issuer or any of the Guarantors or any such person or body corporate so
associated, 

 and shall be entitled to exercise and enforce its rights, comply with its obligations and perform its duties
under or in relation to any such contract, transaction or arrangement as is referred to in (a) above or, as the case may be, any such trusteeship or office of profit as is referred to in (b) above without regard to the interests of the
Noteholders and notwithstanding that the same may be contrary or prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders and shall not be responsible for any liability or expense occasioned to the Noteholders thereby and shall be entitled to retain and
shall not be in any way liable to account for any profit made or share of brokerage or commission or remuneration or other amount or benefit received thereby or in connection therewith. 

Where any holding company, subsidiary or associated company of the Trustee or any director or officer of the Trustee acting other than in his
capacity as such a director or officer has any information, the Trustee shall not thereby be deemed also to have knowledge of such information and, unless it shall have actual knowledge of such information, shall not be responsible for any loss
suffered by Noteholders resulting from the Trustee’s failing to take such information into account in acting or refraining from acting under or in relation to this Trust Deed. 

 

  
 37 

	14.	 MODIFICATION AND SUBSTITUTION 

 

	14.1	 Modification

relevant Issuer in making any modification (a) to this Trust Deed which in the opinion of the Trustee it may be proper to make PROVIDED THAT the Trustee is of the opinion that such modification will not be materially prejudicial to the
interests of the Noteholders or (b) to this Trust Deed if in the opinion of the Trustee such modification is of a formal, minor or technical nature, to correct a manifest error or to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. Any such
modification may be made on such terms and subject to such conditions (if any) as the Trustee may determine, shall be binding upon the Noteholders and the Couponholders and, unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, shall be notified by the relevant

	14.2	 Substitution 

  

	 	(a)	 Substitute Issuer 

The Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders or the Couponholders, agree to the substitution of any Guarantor or its successor in
business or Holding Company or any subsidiary of any Guarantor or its successor in business or Holding Company (the Substituted Obligor) in place of the relevant Issuer (or of any previous substitute under this Subclause) as the principal
debtor under this Trust Deed provided that: 
  

	 	(i)	 amendments to this Trust Deed are made or a trust deed is executed or some other form of undertaking is given
by the Substituted Obligor to the Trustee, in any such case, in form and manner satisfactory to the Trustee, agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Trust Deed with any consequential amendments which the Trustee may deem appropriate as fully as if
the Substituted Obligor had been named in this Trust Deed and on the Notes and Coupons as the principal debtor in place of the relevant Issuer; 

  

	 	(ii)	 where the Substituted Obligor is subject generally to the taxing jurisdiction of any territory or any authority
of or in that territory having power to tax (the Substituted Territory) other than the territory to the taxing jurisdiction of which (or to any such authority of or in which) the relevant Issuer is subject generally (the Issuer’s
Territory), the Substituted Obligor will (unless the Trustee otherwise agrees) give to the Trustee an undertaking in form and manner satisfactory to the Trustee in terms corresponding to the terms of Condition 7 with the substitution for the
references in that Condition to the relevant jurisdiction specified in such Condition of references to the Substituted Territory and in such event this Trust Deed, the Notes and the Coupons (including, but without limitation, Clause 4.2) will be
read accordingly; 

  

	 	(iii)	 if any two of the Directors of the Substituted Obligor certify that it will be solvent immediately after such
substitution, the Trustee need not have regard to the financial condition, profits or prospects of the Substituted Obligor or compare them with those of the relevant Issuer or any Guarantor; and 

 

	 	(iv)	 the obligations of the Substituted Obligor under this Trust Deed are guaranteed by the Guarantors or their
successors in business or Holding Companies (or where a Guarantor or its successor in business or Holding Company is the Substituted Obligor by the other Guarantors or their successors in business or Holding Companies) in the same terms (with
consequential amendments as necessary) as the Guarantee in form and manner satisfactory to the Trustee. 

  

  
 38 

	 	(b)	 Release of Substituted Issuer 

Any such agreement by the Trustee pursuant to this Subclause 14.2 will, if so expressed, operate to release the relevant Issuer (or any such
previous substitute) from any or all of its obligations under this Trust Deed. Not later than 14 days after the execution of any such documents and after compliance with such requirements, notice of the substitution will be given to the Noteholders.

  

	 	(c)	 Completion of Substitution 

Upon the execution of such documents and compliance with such requirements, the Substituted Obligor will be deemed to be named in this Trust
Deed and on the Notes and Coupons as the principal debtor in place of the relevant Issuer (or of any previous substitute under this Subclause 15.2) and this Trust Deed will be deemed to be modified in such manner as shall be necessary to give effect
to the substitution. 
  

	 	(d)	 Substitute Guarantor 

The Trustee may similarly, without the consent of the Noteholders or the Couponholders, agree to the substitution of any Guarantor’s
successor in business or Holding Company in place of any Guarantor, mutatis mutandis so far as applicable (except that the references to Condition 7 in paragraph 14.2(a)(ii) shall be construed as references to Clause 5.9 and paragraph
14.2(a)(iv) shall not be so applicable) upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinbefore provided, with such modifications or additions as the Trustee may agree or require. 

 

	 	(e)	 In the case of any proposed substitution pursuant to this Clause 14.2, the Trustee may, without the consent of
the Noteholders or the Couponholders, agree to a change in law governing the Notes, the Coupons and/or this Trust Deed, provided that such change would not, in the opinion of the Trustee, be materially prejudicial to the interests of the
Noteholders. 

  

	15.	 APPOINTMENT, RETIREMENT AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUSTEE 

 

	15.1	 Appointment 

The Issuer has the power of appointing new trustees but no trustee may be so appointed unless previously approved by an Extraordinary
Resolution. A trust corporation will at all times be a Trustee and may be the sole Trustee. Any appointment of a new Trustee will be notified by the relevant Issuer to the Noteholders as soon as practicable. 

 

	15.2	 Retirement and Removal 

Any Trustee may retire at any time on giving at least three months’ written notice to the relevant Issuer and the Guarantors without
giving any reason or being responsible for any costs occasioned by such retirement and the Noteholders may by Extraordinary Resolution remove any Trustee provided that the retirement or removal of a sole trust corporation will not be effective until
a trust corporation is appointed as successor Trustee. If a sole trust corporation gives notice of retirement or an Extraordinary Resolution is passed for its removal, the relevant Issuer and the Guarantors will use all reasonable endeavours to
procure that another trust corporation be appointed as Trustee. 

  
 39 

	15.3	 Co-Trustees 

The Trustee may, despite Subclause 15.1, by written notice to the relevant Issuer and the Guarantors appoint anyone to act as an additional
Trustee jointly with the Trustee: 
  

	 	(a)	 if the Trustee considers the appointment to be in the interests of the Noteholders and/or the Couponholders;

  

	 	(b)	 to conform with a legal requirement, restriction or condition in any jurisdiction in which a particular act is
to be performed; or 

  

	 	(c)	 to obtain a judgment or to enforce a judgment or any provision of this Trust Deed in any jurisdiction.

 Subject to the provisions of this Trust Deed the Trustee may confer on any person so appointed such functions as it
thinks fit. The Trustee may by written notice to the relevant Issuer, the Guarantors and that person remove that person. At the Trustee’s request, the relevant Issuer and the Guarantors will forthwith do all things as may be required to perfect
such appointment or removal and each of them irrevocably appoints the Trustee as its attorney in its name and on its behalf to do so other than the payment of the costs of such appointee, if any, which will be agreed between the appointee and the
Issuers and the Guarantors and otherwise subject to Clause 9. 
  

	15.4	 Competence of a Majority of Trustees 

If there are more than two Trustees the majority of them will be competent to perform the Trustee’s functions provided the majority
includes a trust corporation. 
  

	16.	 HOLDER OF DEFINITIVE NOTE ASSUMED TO BE COUPONHOLDER 

 

	16.1	 Wherever in this Trust Deed the Trustee is required or entitled to exercise a power, trust, authority or
discretion under this Trust Deed, except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by applicable law, the Trustee shall, notwithstanding that it may have express notice to the contrary, assume that each Noteholder is the holder
of all Coupons appertaining to each Definitive Note of which he is the holder. 

 NO NOTICE TO COUPONHOLDERS 

 

	16.2	 No notices need be given to Couponholders. They will be deemed to have notice of the contents of any notice
given to Noteholders. Even if it has express notice to the contrary, in exercising any of its functions by reference to the interests of the Noteholders, the Trustee will assume that the holder of each Note is the holder of all Coupons relating to
it. 

  

	17.	 CURRENCY INDEMNITY 

 

	17.1	 Currency of Account and Payment 

The currency in which the Notes are denominated (the Contractual Currency) is the currency of account and payment for all sums payable
by the relevant Issuer or a Guarantor under or in connection with this Trust Deed in respect of such Notes and the relative Coupons, including damages. 
  

	17.2	 Extent of discharge 

An amount received or recovered in a currency other than the Contractual Currency (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment
or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the relevant Issuer or a Guarantor or otherwise), by the Trustee or any Noteholder or Couponholder in respect of any sum expressed
to be due to it from the relevant Issuer or a Guarantor will only discharge the relevant Issuer and the relevant Guarantor to the extent of the Contractual Currency amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or
recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). 

  
 40 

	17.3	 Indemnity 

If the relevant Contractual Currency amount is less than the Contractual Currency amount expressed to be due to the recipient under this Trust
Deed, the Notes or the Coupons, the relevant Issuer will indemnify the Trustee, any Noteholder or Couponholder against any loss sustained by any of those parties as a result. In any event, the relevant Issuer will indemnify the recipient against the
cost of making any such purchase. 
  

	17.4	 Indemnity separate 

This indemnity constitutes a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations in this Trust Deed, will give rise to a separate
and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Trustee and/or any Noteholder or Couponholder and will continue in full force and effect despite any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in
respect of any sum due under this Trust Deed, the Notes and/or the Coupons or any other judgment or order.

	1	 Form, Denomination and Title 

The Notes are in bearer form and, in the case of definitive Notes, serially numbered, in the Specified Currency and the Specified
Denomination(s) specified in the applicable Final Terms. Notes of one Specified Denomination may not be exchanged for Notes of another Specified Denomination. 

This Note may be a Fixed Rate Note, a Floating Rate Note, a Zero Coupon Note or a combination of any of the foregoing, depending upon the
Interest Basis shown in the applicable Final Terms. 
 Definitive Notes are issued with Coupons attached, unless they are Zero Coupon Notes
in which case references to Coupons and Couponholders in these Terms and Conditions, the Trust Deed and the Agency Agreement are not applicable. 

Subject as set out below, title to the Notes and Coupons will pass by delivery. The Issuer, the Guarantors and any Paying Agent will (except as
otherwise required by law) deem and treat the bearer of any Note or Coupon as the absolute owner thereof (whether or not overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon or notice of any previous loss or theft thereof) for all
purposes but, in the case of any Global Note, without prejudice to the provisions set out in the next succeeding paragraph. 
 For so long as
any of the Notes is represented by a Global Note held on behalf of Euroclear Bank SA/NV (“Euroclear”) and/or Clearstream Banking, SA (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”), each person (other than Euroclear or Clearstream,
Luxembourg) who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear or of Clearstream, Luxembourg as the holder of a particular nominal amount of such Notes (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear or Clearstream,
Luxembourg as to the nominal amount of such Notes standing to the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Paying Agents as the
holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for all purposes, other than with respect to the payment of principal or interest on such nominal amount of such Notes, for which purpose the bearer of the relevant Global Note shall be treated by the
Issuer, the Guarantors and any Paying Agent as the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of the relevant Global Note and the expressions “Noteholder” and “holder of
Notes” and related expressions shall be construed accordingly. 
  

  
 45 

 Notes which are represented by a Global Note will be transferable only in accordance with
the rules and procedures for the time being of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be. References to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg shall, whenever the context so permits, be deemed to include a reference to any
additional or alternative clearing system specified in the applicable Final Terms, or as may otherwise be approved by the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Trustee. 
  

	2	 Status of the Notes and the Guarantee 

 

	 	(a)	 Status of the Notes 

The Notes and Coupons constitute direct, unconditional and (subject to the provisions of Condition 3) unsecured obligations of the Issuer and
rank and will rank pari passu and without any preference among themselves and (subject as aforesaid and save to the extent that laws affecting creditors’ rights generally in a bankruptcy or winding up may give preference to any of such
other obligations) equally with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer from time to time outstanding. 
  

	 	(b)	 Status of the Guarantee 

The payment of principal of, and interest on, the Notes together with all other amounts payable by the Issuer under or pursuant to the Trust
Deed has been unconditionally and irrevocably and jointly and severally guaranteed in the Trust Deed by the Guarantors (other than the Issuer). 

The obligations of each Guarantor under its guarantee constitute direct, unconditional and (subject to the provisions of Condition 3) unsecured
obligations of the relevant Guarantor and (subject as aforesaid and save to the extent that laws affecting creditors’ rights generally in a bankruptcy or winding up may give preference to any of such other obligations) rank and will rank
equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the relevant Guarantor from time to time outstanding. 
 The Trust Deed
contains a covenant on the part of the Issuers and the Guarantors in the event that any other company, the share capital of which is or is to be admitted to the official list of the Financial Conduct Authority under Part VI of the Financial Services
and Markets Act 2000 (the “Official List”) and admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange plc’s Regulated Market (the “Market”), becomes the ultimate Holding Company of British American Tobacco, to
procure that such other Holding Company shall become a guarantor under the Trust Deed, jointly and severally with the Guarantors, with effect from the later of (i) the date on which such other company becomes the ultimate Holding Company of
British American Tobacco and (ii) the date on which the share capital of such other Holding Company is admitted to the Official List and admitted to trading on the Market. In such event, the term “Guarantors” herein shall be
deemed to include such other Holding Company. 
  

	3	 Negative Pledge 

So long as any of the Notes remains outstanding (as defined in the Trust Deed) neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor will secure or allow to be
secured any Quoted Borrowing or any payment under any guarantee by any of them of any Quoted Borrowing by any mortgage, charge, pledge or lien (other than arising by operation of law) upon any of its undertaking or assets, whether present or future,
unless at the same time the same mortgage, charge, pledge or lien is extended, or security which is in the opinion of the Trustee not materially less beneficial to the Noteholders than the security given as aforesaid or which shall be approved by
Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed) of the Noteholders is extended, or (as the case may be) created, in favour of the Trustee to secure equally and rateably the principal of, and interest on, and all other payments (if any) in
respect of the Notes and under the Trust Deed. 
 For the purposes of this Condition 3, “Quoted Borrowing” means any
indebtedness which (a) is represented by notes, debentures or other securities issued otherwise than to constitute or represent advances made by banks and/or other lending institutions; (b) is denominated, or confers any right to payment
of principal and/or 
  

  
 46 

 interest, in or by reference to any currency other than the currency of the country in which
the issuer of the indebtedness has its principal place of business or is denominated, or confers any right to payment of principal and/or interest, in or by reference to the currency of such country but is placed or offered for subscription or sale
by or on behalf of, or by agreement with, the issuer of such indebtedness as to over 20 per cent. outside such country; and (c) at its date of issue is, or is intended by the issuer of such indebtedness to become, quoted, listed, traded or
dealt in on any stock exchange or other organised and regulated securities market in any part of the world. 
  

	4	 Interest 

  

	 	(a)	 Interest on Fixed Rate Notes 

The applicable Final Terms contains provisions applicable to the determination of fixed rate interest and must be read in conjunction with this
Condition 4(a) for full information on the manner in which interest is calculated on Fixed Rate Notes. In particular, the applicable Final Terms will specify, as applicable, the Interest Commencement Date, the Rate(s) of Interest, the
Interest Payment Date(s), the Maturity Date, the Fixed Coupon Amount, any applicable Broken Amount, the Calculation Amount, the Day Count Fraction and any applicable Determination Date. 

Each Fixed Rate Note bears interest from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date at the rate(s) per annum equal to the Rate(s) of
Interest payable in arrear on the Interest Payment Date(s) in each year up to (and including) the Maturity Date. 
 If the Notes are in
definitive form, except as otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms, the amount of interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will amount to the Fixed Coupon Amount. Payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date will, if so specified
in the applicable Final Terms, amount to the Broken Amount so specified. 
 Except in the case of Notes in definitive form where an
applicable Fixed Coupon Amount or Broken Amount is specified in the applicable Final Terms, interest shall be calculated in respect of any period by applying the Rate of Interest to: 

 

	 	(A)	 in the case of Fixed Rate Notes which are represented by a Global Note, the aggregate outstanding amount of the
Fixed Rate Notes represented by such Global Note; or 

  

	 	(B)	 in the case of Fixed Rate Notes in definitive form, the Calculation Amount; 

and in each case, multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction, and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. 

Where the Specified Denomination of a Fixed Rate Note in definitive form is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the amount of interest
payable in respect of such Fixed Rate Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for the Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination,
without any further rounding. 
 “Day Count Fraction” means in respect of the calculation of an amount of interest in
accordance with 
 Condition 4(a): 
  

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

 

	 	(A)	 in the case of Notes where the number of days in the relevant period from (and including) the most recent
Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the relevant payment date (the “Accrual Period”) is equal to or shorter than the Determination Period during which the Accrual Period ends, the
number of days in such Accrual Period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in such Determination Period and (2) the number of Determination Dates that would occur in one calendar year; or 

  
 47 

	 	(B)	 in the case of Notes where the Accrual Period is longer than the Determination Period commencing on the last
Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement Date), the sum of: 

  

	 	(1)	 the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the Determination Period in which the Accrual Period
begins divided by the product of (x) the number of days in such Determination Period and (y) the number of Determination Periods normally ending in one calendar year; and 

 

	 	(2)	 the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the next Determination Period divided by the product of
(x) the number of days in such Determination Period and (y) the number of Determination Periods normally ending in one calendar year; 

  

	 	(ii)	 if “30/360” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the number of days in the period from
(and including) the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the relevant payment date (such number of days being calculated on the basis of 12 30-day
months) divided by 360; and 

  

	 	(iii)	 if “Actual/365 (Fixed)” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the actual number of days
in the period from (and including) the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the relevant payment date divided by 365. 

In these Terms and Conditions: 

“Determination Period” means the period from (and including) a Determination Date to (but excluding) the next Determination
Date. 
 “sub-unit” means, with respect to any currency other than Euro, the lowest
amount of such currency that is available as legal tender in the country of such currency and, with respect to Euro, means one cent. 
  

	 	(b)	 Interest on Floating Rate Notes 

The applicable Final Terms contains provisions applicable to the determination of floating rate interest and must be read in conjunction with
this Condition 4(b) for full information on the manner in which interest is calculated on Floating Rate Notes. In particular, the applicable Final Terms will identify, as applicable, any Specified Interest Payment Dates, any Specified Period,
the Interest Commencement Date, the Business Day Convention, any Additional Business Centres, whether ISDA Determination or Screen Rate Determination applies to the calculation of interest, the party who will calculate the amount of interest due if
it is not the Agent, the Margin, any maximum or minimum interest rates and the Day Count Fraction. Where ISDA Determination applies to the calculation of interest, the applicable Final Terms will also specify the applicable Floating Rate Option,
Designated Maturity and Reset Date. Where Screen Rate Determination applies to the calculation of interest, the applicable Final Terms will also specify the applicable Reference Rate, Interest Determination Date(s) and Relevant Screen Page. 

 

	 	(i)	 Interest Payment Dates 

Each Floating Rate Note bears interest from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date and such interest will be payable in arrear on
either: 
  

	 	(A)	 the Specified Interest Payment Date(s) in each year specified in the applicable Final Terms; or

  
 48 

	 	(B)	 if no Specified Interest Payment Date(s) is/are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each date (each such
date, together with each Specified Interest Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date”) which falls the number of months or other period specified as the Specified Period in the applicable Final Terms after the preceding Interest
Payment Date or, in the case of the first Interest Payment Date, after the Interest Commencement Date. 

 Such interest
will be payable in respect of each “Interest Period” (which expression shall, in these Terms and Conditions, mean the period from (and including) an Interest Payment Date (or the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the
next (or first) Interest Payment Date). 
 If a Business Day Convention is specified in the applicable Final Terms and (x) if there is
no numerically corresponding day on the calendar month in which an Interest Payment Date should occur or (y) if any Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, then, if the Business Day Convention specified
is: 
  

	 	(1)	 in any case where Specified Periods are specified in accordance with Condition 4(b)(i)(B) above, the
Floating Rate Convention, such Interest Payment Date (i) in the case of (x) above, shall be the last day that is a Business Day in the relevant month and the provisions of (B) below shall apply mutatis mutandis or (ii) in
the case of (y) above, shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event (A) such Interest Payment Date shall be brought forward to the immediately
preceding Business Day and (B) each subsequent Interest Payment Date shall be the last Business Day in the month in which the Specified Period falls after the preceding applicable Interest Payment Date occurred; or 

 

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

  

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

 

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

 In this Condition, “Business Day” means a day (other than a Saturday or a
Sunday) which is both: 
  

	 	(A)	 a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business
(including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London and each Additional Business Centre (if any) specified in the applicable Final Terms; and 

 

	 	(B)	 either (1) in relation to any sum payable in a Specified Currency other than euro, a day on which
commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant Specified
Currency (if other than London and any Additional Business Centre and which, if the Specified Currency is Australian dollars or New Zealand dollars, shall be Sydney and Auckland, respectively) or (2) in relation to any sum payable in Euro, a
day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (known as TARGET2) System which was launched on 19 November 2007, or any successor thereto (the “TARGET System”) is operating.

  
 49 

	 	(ii)	 Rate of Interest 

The Rate of Interest payable from time to time in respect of Floating Rate Notes will be determined in the manner specified in the applicable
Final Terms and the provisions below relating to either ISDA Determination or Screen Rate Determination shall apply, depending upon which is specified in the applicable Final Terms. 

 

	 	(A)	 ISDA Determination for Floating Rate Notes 

Where ISDA Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, the Rate
of Interest for each Interest Period will be the relevant ISDA Rate plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms) the Margin (if any). For the purposes of this sub-paragraph (A), “ISDA
Rate” for an Interest Period means a rate equal to the Floating Rate that would be determined by the Agent under an interest rate swap transaction if the Agent were acting as Calculation Agent for that swap transaction under the terms of an
agreement incorporating the 2006 ISDA Definitions, as amended and updated as at the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes and as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (the “ISDA Definitions”)
and under which: 
  

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

 

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

 

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

 For the purposes of this sub-paragraph (A), (i) “Floating
Rate”, “Calculation Agent”, “Floating Rate Option”, “Designated Maturity”, “Reset Date” and “euro-zone” have the meanings given to those terms in the ISDA
Definitions and (ii) the definition of “Banking Day” in the ISDA Definitions shall be amended to insert after the words “are open for” in the second line thereof the word “general”. 

 

	 	(B)	 Screen Rate Determination for Floating Rate Notes 

 

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

  

	 	(I)	 the offered quotation; or 

 

	 	(II)	 the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of
the offered quotations, 

 (expressed as a percentage rate per annum) for the Reference Rate(s) which appears or appear,
as the case may be, on the Relevant Screen Page as at 11.00 a.m. (London time, in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time, in the case of EURIBOR) on the Interest Determination Date in question plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms)
the Margin (if any), all as determined by the Agent. If five or more of such offered quotations are available on the Relevant Screen Page, the highest (or, if there is more than one such highest quotation, one only of such quotations) and the lowest
(or, if there is more than one such lowest quotation, one only of such quotations) shall be disregarded by the Agent for the purpose of determining the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of such offered quotations; 

  
 50 

	 	(2)	 If the Relevant Screen Page is not available or, if in the case of
sub-paragraph (B)(1)(I) above, no such offered quotation appears or, in the case of sub-paragraph (B)(1)(II) above, fewer than three such offered quotations appear, in each case as at the time specified in the
preceding paragraph the Agent shall request each of the several banks initially appointed as reference banks in relation to the Notes of any relevant Series and/or, if applicable, any Successor reference banks in relation thereto such banks being,
in the case of a determination of LIBOR, the principal London office of four major banks in the London inter-bank market and, in the case of a determination of EURIBOR, the principal euro-zone office of four major banks in the euro-zone inter-bank
market, in each case selected by the Issuer or as specified in the applicable Final Terms (each a “Reference Bank”, and together the “Reference Banks”) to provide the Agent with its offered quotation (expressed as a
percentage rate per annum) for the Reference Rate at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time, in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time, in the case of EURIBOR) on the Interest Determination Date in question. If two or more of the Reference Banks provide
the Agent with such offered quotations, the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of such offered quotations plus or minus (as
appropriate) the Margin (if any), all as determined by the Agent; and 

  

	 	(3)	 If on any Interest Determination Date one only or none of the Reference Banks provides the Agent with such
offered quotations as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which the Agent determines as being the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place,
with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the rates, as communicated to (and at the request of) the Agent by the Reference Banks or any two or more of them, at which such banks were offered, at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time, in the case of
LIBOR, or Brussels time, in the case of EURIBOR) on the relevant Interest Determination Date, deposits in the Specified Currency for a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate by leading banks in the London inter-bank
market (if the Reference Rate is LIBOR) or the euro-zone inter-bank market (if the Reference Rate is EURIBOR) plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin (if any) or, if fewer than two of the Reference Banks provide the Agent with such offered rates,
the offered rate for deposits in the Specified Currency for a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate, or the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of the offered rates for deposits in the Specified Currency for
a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate, at which, at approximately 11.00 a.m. (London time, in the case of LIBOR, or Brussels time, in the case of EURIBOR) on the relevant Interest Determination Date, any one or
more banks (which bank or banks is or are in the opinion of the relevant Issuer suitable for such purpose) informs the Agent it is quoting to leading banks in the London inter-bank market (if the Reference Rate is LIBOR) or the euro-zone inter-bank
market (if the Reference Rate is EURIBOR) plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin (if any), provided that, if the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Rate of Interest shall be
determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date (though substituting, where a different Margin is to be applied to the relevant Interest Period from that which applied to the last preceding Interest Period, the Margin relating to the
relevant Interest Period, in place of the Margin relating to that last preceding Interest Period). 

  
 51 

	 	(C)	 Benchmark Discontinuation 

 

	 	(1)	 Independent Adviser 

Notwithstanding Conditions 4(b)(ii)(B)(2) and (3), if a Benchmark Event occurs in relation to an Original Reference Rate when any Rate of
Interest (or any component part thereof) remains to be determined by reference to such Original Reference Rate, then the Issuer shall use its reasonable endeavours to appoint and consult with an Independent Adviser, as soon as reasonably
practicable, with a view to the Issuer determining a Successor Rate, failing which an Alternative Rate (in accordance with Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(2)) and, in either case, an Adjustment Spread if any (in accordance with Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(3)) and
any Benchmark Amendments (in accordance with Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(4)). 
 An Independent Adviser appointed pursuant to this Condition
4(b)(ii)(C) shall act in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner as an expert and (in the absence of bad faith or fraud) shall have no liability whatsoever to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agents, the Noteholders or the
Couponholders for any determination made by it or for any advice given to the Issuer in connection with any determination made by the Issuer, pursuant to this Condition 4(b)(ii)(C). 

 

	 	(2)	 Successor Rate or Alternative Rate 

If the Issuer, following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner,
determines that: 
  

	 	(I)	 there is a Successor Rate, then such Successor Rate shall (subject to adjustment as provided in Condition
4(b)(ii)(C)(3)) subsequently be used in place of the Original Reference Rate to determine the Rate of Interest (or the relevant component part thereof) for all relevant future payments of interest on the Notes (subject to the operation of this
Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)); or 

  

	 	(II)	 there is no Successor Rate but that there is an Alternative Rate, then such Alternative Rate shall (subject to
adjustment as provided in Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(3)) subsequently be used in place of the Original Reference Rate to determine the Rate of Interest (or the relevant component part thereof) for all relevant future payments of interest on the Notes
(subject to the operation of this Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)). 

  

	 	(3)	 Adjustment Spread 

If the Issuer, following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner,
determines (a) that an Adjustment Spread is required to be applied to the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as the case may be) and (b) the quantum of, or a formula or methodology for determining, such Adjustment Spread, then such
Adjustment Spread shall be applied to the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as the case may be). 
  

	 	(4)	 Benchmark Amendments 

If any Successor Rate, Alternative Rate or Adjustment Spread is determined in accordance with this Condition 4(b)(ii)(C) and the Issuer,
following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, determines (a) that amendments to these Conditions and/or the Trust Deed are necessary to ensure the proper operation of such
Successor Rate, Alternative Rate and/or Adjustment Spread (such amendments, the “Benchmark Amendments”) and (b) the terms of the Benchmark Amendments, then the Issuer shall, subject to giving notice thereof in accordance with
Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(5), without any requirement for the consent or approval of Noteholders, vary these Conditions and/or the Trust Deed to give effect to such Benchmark Amendments with effect from the date specified in such notice. 

  
 52 

 At the request of the Issuer, but subject to receipt by the Trustee of a certificate signed
by an authorised signatory of the Issuer pursuant to Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(5), the Trustee shall (at the expense of the Issuer), without any requirement for the consent or approval of the Noteholders, be obliged to concur with the Issuer in
effecting any Benchmark Amendments (including, inter alia, by the execution of a deed supplemental to or amending the Trust Deed), provided that the Trustee shall not be obliged so to concur if in the opinion of the Trustee doing so would
impose more onerous obligations upon it or expose it to any additional duties, responsibilities or liabilities or reduce or amend the protective provisions afforded to the Trustee in these Conditions or the Trust Deed (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any supplemental trust deed) in any way. 
 In connection with any such variation in accordance with this Condition
4(b)(ii)(C)(4), the Issuer shall comply with the rules of any stock exchange on which the Notes are for the time being listed or admitted to trading. 
  

	 	(5)	 Notices, etc. 

Any Successor Rate, Alternative Rate, Adjustment Spread and the specific terms of any Benchmark Amendments, determined under this Condition
4(b)(ii)(C) will be notified promptly by the Issuer to the Trustee, the Agent and, in accordance with Condition 13, the Noteholders. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the effective date of the Benchmark Amendments, if any. 

No later than notifying the Trustee of the same, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by an authorised signatory of
the Issuer: 
  

	 	(I)	 confirming (a) that a Benchmark Event has occurred, (b) the Successor Rate or, as the case may be,
the Alternative Rate and, (c) where applicable, any Adjustment Spread and/or the specific terms of any Benchmark Amendments, in each case as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Condition 4(b)(ii)(C); and 

 

	 	(II)	 certifying that the Benchmark Amendments are necessary to ensure the proper operation of such Successor Rate,
Alternative Rate and/or Adjustment Spread. 

 The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such certificate (without liability
to any person) as sufficient evidence thereof. The Successor Rate or Alternative Rate and the Adjustment Spread (if any) and the Benchmark Amendments (if any) specified in such certificate will (in the absence of manifest error or bad faith in the
determination of the Successor Rate or Alternative Rate and the Adjustment Spread (if any) and the Benchmark Amendments (if any) and without prejudice to the Trustee’s ability to rely on such certificate as aforesaid) be binding on the Issuer,
the Trustee, the Agent and the Noteholders. 
  

	 	(6)	 Survival of Original Reference Rate 

Without prejudice to the obligations of the Issuer under Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(1), (2), (3) and (4), the Original Reference Rate and the
fallback provisions provided for in Condition 4(b)(ii)(B) and Clause 9.2 of the Agency Agreement will continue to apply unless and until the Agent has been notified of the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as the case may be), and any
Adjustment Spread and Benchmark Amendments, in accordance with Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(5). 

  
 53 

	 	(7)	 Definitions 

As used in this Condition 4(b)(ii)(C): 

“Adjustment Spread” means either a spread (which may be positive or negative), or the formula or methodology for calculating
a spread, in either case, which the Issuer, following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, determines is required to be applied to the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as
the case may be) to reduce or eliminate, to the fullest extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, any economic prejudice or benefit (as the case may be) to Noteholders and Couponholders as a result of the replacement of the Original
Reference Rate with the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as the case may be) and is the spread, formula or methodology which: 
  

	 	(I)	 in the case of a Successor Rate, is formally recommended in relation to the replacement of the Original
Reference Rate with the Successor Rate by any Relevant Nominating Body; or 

  

	 	(II)	 if no such recommendation has been made, or in the case of an Alternative Rate, the Issuer determines,
following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, is recognised or acknowledged as being the industry standard for
over-the-counter derivative transactions which reference the Original Reference Rate, where such rate has been replaced by the Successor Rate or the Alternative Rate (as
the case may be); or 

  

	 	(III)	 if the Issuer determines that no such industry standard is recognised or acknowledged, the Issuer, in its
discretion, following consultation with the Independent Adviser and acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, determines to be appropriate. 

“Alternative Rate” means an alternative benchmark or screen rate which the Issuer determines in accordance with Condition
4(b)(ii)(C)(2) has replaced the Original Reference Rate in customary market usage in the international debt capital markets for the purposes of determining rates of interest (or the relevant component part thereof) for the same interest period and
in the same Specified Currency as the Notes. 
 “Benchmark Amendments” has the meaning given to it in Condition
4(b)(ii)(C)(4). 
 “Benchmark Event” means: 
  

	 	(I)	 the Original Reference Rate ceasing to exist or be published; or 

 

	 	(II)	 a public statement by the administrator of the Original Reference Rate that it will, by a specified date within
the following six months, cease publishing the Original Reference Rate permanently or indefinitely (in circumstances where no successor administrator has been appointed that will continue publication of the Original Reference Rate); or

  

	 	(III)	 a public statement by the supervisor of the administrator of the Original Reference Rate that the Original
Reference Rate has been or will, by a specified date within the following six months, be permanently or indefinitely discontinued; or 

  
 54 

	 	(IV)	 a public statement by the supervisor of the administrator of the Original Reference Rate that means the
Original Reference Rate will be prohibited from being used, in each case within the following six months; or 

  

	 	(V)	 it has become unlawful for any Agent or the Issuer to calculate any payments due to be made to any Noteholder
using the Original Reference Rate. 

 “Independent Adviser” means an independent financial institution of
international repute or an independent financial adviser with appropriate expertise appointed by the Issuer at its own expense under Condition 4(b)(ii)(C)(1) and notified in writing to the Trustee. 

“Original Reference Rate” means the originally-specified benchmark or screen rate (as applicable) used to determine the Rate
of Interest (or any component part thereof) on the Notes. 
 “Relevant Nominating Body” means, in respect of a benchmark or
screen rate (as applicable): 
  

	 	(I)	 the central bank for the currency to which the benchmark or screen rate (as applicable) relates, or any central
bank or other supervisory authority which is responsible for supervising the administrator of the benchmark or screen rate (as applicable); or 

  

	 	(II)	 any working group or committee sponsored by, chaired or co-chaired by
or constituted at the request of (a) the central bank for the currency to which the benchmark or screen rate (as applicable) relates, (b) any central bank or other supervisory authority which is responsible for supervising the
administrator of the benchmark or screen rate (as applicable), (c) a group of the aforementioned central banks or other supervisory authorities or (d) the Financial Stability Board or any part thereof. 

“Successor Rate” means a successor to or replacement of the Original Reference Rate which is formally recommended by any
Relevant Nominating Body. 
  

	 	(D)	 Linear Interpolation 

Where Linear Interpolation is specified as applicable in respect of an Interest Period in the applicable Final Terms, the Rate of Interest for
such Interest Period shall be calculated by the Agent by straight line linear interpolation by reference to two rates based on the relevant Reference Rate (where Screen Rate Determination is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms) or
the relevant Floating Rate Option (where ISDA Determination is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms), one of which shall be determined as if the Applicable Maturity were the period of time for which rates are available next shorter
than the length of the relevant Interest Period and the other of which shall be determined as if the Applicable Maturity were the period of time for which rates are available next longer than the length of the relevant Interest Period, provided
however, that if there is no rate available for the period of time next shorter or, as the case may be, next longer, then the Agent shall determine such rate at such time and by reference to such sources as it determines appropriate. 

“Applicable Maturity” means: (a) in relation to Screen Rate Determination, the period of time designated in the
Reference Rate, and (b) in relation to ISDA Determination, the Designated Maturity. 

  
 55 

	 	(iii)	 Minimum Rate of Interest and/or Maximum Rate of Interest 

If the applicable Final Terms specifies a Minimum Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, then, in the event that the Rate of Interest in
respect of such Interest Period determined in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (ii) above is less than such Minimum Rate of Interest, the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period shall be such Minimum Rate of Interest. 

If the applicable Final Terms specifies a Maximum Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, then, in the event that the Rate of Interest in
respect of such Interest Period determined in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (ii) above is greater than such Maximum Rate of Interest, the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period shall be such Maximum Rate of Interest. 

 

	 	(iv)	 Determination of Rate of Interest and calculation of Interest Amounts 

The Agent will at or as soon as practicable after each time at which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, determine the Rate of Interest
for the relevant Interest Period. 
 The Agent will calculate the amount of interest (the “Interest Amount”) payable on the
Floating Rate Notes for the relevant Interest Period by applying the Rate of Interest to: 
  

	 	(A)	 in the case of Floating Rate Notes which are represented by a Global Note, the aggregate outstanding nominal
amount of the Notes represented by such Global Note; or 

  

	 	(B)	 in the case of Floating Rate Notes in definitive form, the Calculation Amount; 

and, in each case, multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction, and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. 

Where the Specified Denomination of a Floating Rate Note in definitive form is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the Interest Amount
payable in respect of such Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for the Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination, without any
further rounding. 
 “Day Count Fraction” means, in respect of the calculation of an amount of interest for any Interest
Period: 
  

	 	(A)	 if “Actual/Actual” or “Actual/Actual (ISDA)” is specified in the applicable
Final Terms, the actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 365 (or, if any portion of that Interest Period falls in a leap year, the sum of (A) the actual number of days in that portion of the Interest Period falling in a leap
year divided by 366 and (B) the actual number of days in that portion of the Interest Period falling in a non-leap year divided by 365); 

 

	 	(B)	 if “Actual/365 (Fixed)” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the actual number of days
in the Interest Period divided by 365; 

  

	 	(C)	 if “Actual/360” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the actual number of days in the
Interest Period divided by 360; 

  

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

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

  
 56 

 where: 

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

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

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

“M2” is the calendar month, expressed as number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period
falls; 
 “D1” is the first calendar day, expressed as a number, of the Interest Period, unless such number would be 31, in which
case D1 will be 30; and 
 “D2” is the calendar day, expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the
Interest Period, unless such number would be 31 and D1 is greater than 29, in which case D2 will be 30; 
  

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

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

where: 
 “Y1” is the
year, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the Interest Period falls; 
 “Y2” is the year, expressed as a number, in
which the day immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period falls; 
 “M1” is the calendar month, expressed
as a number, in which the first day of the Interest Period falls; 
 “M2” is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which
the day immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period falls; 
 “D1” is the first calendar day, expressed as
a number, of the Interest Period, unless such number would be 31, in which case D1 will be 30; and 
 “D2” is the calendar day,
expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period, unless such number would be 31, in which case D2 will be 30 
  

	 	(F)	 if “30E/360 (ISDA)” is specified hereon, the number of days in the Interest Period divided by
360, calculated on a formula basis as follows: 

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

where: 
 “Y1” is the
year, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the Interest Period falls; 
 “Y2” is the year, expressed as a number, in
which the day immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period falls; 
 “M1” is the calendar month, expressed
as a number, in which the first day of the Interest Period falls; 

  
 57 

 “M2” is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately
following the last day included in the Interest Period falls; 
 “D1” is the first calendar day, expressed as a number, of the
Interest Period, unless (i) that day is the last day of February or (ii) such number would be 31, in which case D1 will be 30; and 

“D2” is the calendar day, expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the Interest Period, unless
(i) that day is the last day of February but not the Maturity Date or (ii) such number would be 31, in which case D2 will be 30; and 
  

	 	(G)	 if “Actual/365 (Sterling)” is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the actual number of
days in the Interest Period divided by 365 or, in the case of an Interest Payment Date falling in a leap year, 366. 

  

	 	(v)	 Notification of Rate of Interest and Interest Amounts 

The Agent will cause the Rate of Interest and each Interest Amount for each Interest Period and the relevant Interest Payment Date to be
notified to the Issuer and any stock exchange or other relevant authority on which the relevant Floating Rate Notes are for the time being listed or by which they have been admitted to trading (if the rules of that stock exchange or other relevant
authority so require) and notice thereof to be published in accordance with Condition 13 as soon as possible after their determination but in no event later than (a) the commencement of the relevant Interest Period, if determined prior to such
time, in the case of notification to such stock exchange of a Rate of Interest and Interest Amount, or (b) in all other cases, the fourth London Business Day thereafter. Each Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date so notified may
subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without prior notice in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period. Any such amendment will be promptly notified to each stock exchange
or other relevant authority on which the relevant Floating Rate Notes are for the time being listed or by which they have been admitted to trading (if the rules of that stock exchange or other relevant authority so require) and to the Noteholders in
accordance with Condition 13. For the purposes of this paragraph, the expression “London Business Day” means a day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday) on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are
open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London. 
  

	 	(vi)	 Determination or calculation by Trustee 

If for any reason at any relevant time the Agent defaults in its obligation to determine the Rate of Interest or the Agent defaults in its
obligation to calculate any Interest Amount in accordance with sub-paragraph (ii)(A) or (B) above or as otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, as the case may be, and, in each, case in
accordance with paragraph (iv) above, the Trustee may determine the Rate of Interest at such rate as, in its absolute discretion (having such regard as it shall think fit to the foregoing provisions of this Condition, but subject always to any
Minimum Rate of Interest or Maximum Rate of Interest specified in the applicable Final Terms), it shall deem fair and reasonable in all the circumstances or, as the case may be, the Trustee may calculate the Interest Amount(s) in such manner as it
shall deem fair and reasonable in all the circumstances and each such determination or calculation shall be deemed to have been made by the Agent. 
  

	 	(vii)	 Certificates to be final 

All certificates, communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the
purposes of the provisions of this Condition 4(b), whether by the Agent or, if applicable, the Trustee, shall (in the absence of wilful default, bad faith or manifest error) be binding on the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Agent, the 

  
 58 

 
other Paying Agents, the Trustee and all Noteholders and Couponholders and (in the absence as aforesaid) no liability to the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Noteholders or the Couponholders shall
attach to the Agent or (if applicable) the Trustee in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by it of its powers, duties and discretions pursuant to such provisions. 

 

	 	(c)	 Accrual of interest 

Each Note (or in the case of the redemption of part only of a Note, that part only of such Note) will cease to bear interest (if any) from the
date for its redemption unless, upon due presentation thereof, payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused. In such event, interest will continue to accrue as provided in the Trust Deed. 

 

	5	 Payments 

  

	 	(a)	 Method of payment  

 

	 	Subject	 as provided below: 

  

	 	(i)	 payments in a Specified Currency other than euro will be made by credit or transfer to an account in the
relevant Specified Currency maintained by the payee with, or, at the option of the payee, by a cheque in such Specified Currency drawn on a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of such Specified Currency (which, if the Specified
Currency is Australian dollars or New Zealand dollars, shall be Sydney and Auckland, respectively); and 

  

	 	(ii)	 payments in euro will be made by credit or transfer to a euro account (or any other account to which euro may
be credited or transferred) specified by the payee or, at the option of the payee, by a euro cheque. 

 Payments will be
subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto in the place of payment, but without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 7. 
  

	 	(b)	 Presentation of definitive Notes and Coupons 

Payments of principal in respect of definitive Notes will (subject as provided below) be made in the manner provided in paragraph
(a) above only against presentation and surrender (or, in the case of part payment of any sum due, endorsement) of definitive Notes, and payments of interest in respect of definitive Notes will (subject as provided below) be made as
aforesaid only against presentation and surrender (or, in the case of part payment of any sum due, endorsement) of Coupons, in each case at the specified office of any Paying Agent outside the United States (which expression, as used herein, means
the United States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia, its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its jurisdiction)). 

Fixed Rate Notes in definitive form should be presented for payment together with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto (which expression
shall for this purpose include Coupons falling to be issued on exchange of matured Talons), failing which the amount of any missing unmatured Coupon (or, in the case of payment not being made in full, the same proportion of the amount of such
missing unmatured Coupon as the sum so paid bears to the sum due) will be deducted from the sum due for payment. Each amount of principal so deducted will be paid in the manner mentioned above against surrender of the relative missing Coupon at any
time before the expiry of ten years after the Relevant Date (as defined in Condition 7) in respect of such principal (whether or not such Coupon would otherwise have become void under Condition 8) or, if later, five years from the date on which such
Coupon would otherwise have become due, but in no event thereafter. 
 Where any definitive Note that provides that the relative unmatured
Coupons are to become void upon the due date for redemption of those Notes is presented for redemption without all unmatured Coupons, and where any definitive Note is presented for redemption without any unexchanged Talon relating to it, redemption
shall be made only against the provision of such indemnity as the Issuer may require. 

  
 59 

 Upon any Fixed Rate Note in definitive form becoming due and repayable prior to its Maturity
Date, all unmatured Talons (if any) appertaining thereto will become void and no further Coupons will be issued in respect thereof. 
 Upon
the date on which any Floating Rate Note in definitive form becomes due and repayable, unmatured Coupons and Talons (if any) relating thereto (whether or not attached) shall become void and no payment or, as the case may be, exchange for further
Coupons shall be made in respect thereof. 
 If the due date for redemption of any definitive Note is not an Interest Payment Date, interest
(if any) accrued in respect of such Note from (and including) the preceding Interest Payment Date or, as the case may be, the Interest Commencement Date shall be payable only against surrender of the relevant definitive Note. 

 

	 	(c)	 Payments in respect of Global Notes 

Payments of principal and interest (if any) in respect of Notes represented by any Global Note will (subject as provided below) be made in the
manner specified above in relation to definitive Notes and otherwise in the manner specified in the relevant Global Note against presentation or surrender, as the case may be, of such Global Note at the specified office of any Paying Agent outside
the United States. A record of each payment made against presentation or surrender of any Global Note, distinguishing between any payment of principal and any payment of interest, will be made on such Global Note by the Paying Agent to which it was
presented and such record shall be prima facie evidence that the payment in question has been made. 
  

	 	(d)	 General provisions applicable to payments 

The holder of a Global Note shall be the only person entitled to receive payments in respect of Notes represented by such Global Note and the
Issuer or, as the case may be, any Guarantor will be discharged by payment to, or to the order of, the holder of such Global Note in respect of each amount so paid. Each of the persons shown in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as
the beneficial holder of a particular nominal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note must look solely to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, for his share of each payment so made by the Issuer or, as the case may be,
any Guarantor to, or to the order of, the holder of such Global Note. 
 Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) above,
if any amount of principal and/or interest in respect of Notes is payable in US dollars, such US dollar payments of principal and/or interest in respect of such Notes will be made at the specified office of a Paying Agent in the United States if:

  

	 	(i)	 the Issuer has appointed Paying Agents with specified offices outside the United States with the reasonable
expectation that such Paying Agents would be able to make payment in US dollars at such specified offices outside the United States of the full amount of principal and interest on the Notes in the manner provided above when due;

  

	 	(ii)	 payment of the full amount of such principal and interest at all such specified offices outside the United
States is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the full payment or receipt of principal and interest in US dollars; and 

 

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

  
 60 

	 	(e)	 Payment Day 

If the date for payment of any amount in respect of any Note or Coupon is not a Payment Day, the holder thereof shall not be entitled to
payment until the next following Payment Day in the relevant place and shall not be entitled to further interest or other payment in respect of such delay. For these purposes, “Payment Day” means any day (other than a Saturday or a
Sunday) which (subject to Condition 8) is: 
  

	 	(i)	 a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business
(including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in: 

  

	 	(A)	 in the case of definitive Notes only, the relevant place of presentation; 

 

	 	(B)	 each Additional Financial Centre (if any) specified in the applicable Final Terms; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 either (1) in relation to any sum payable in a Specified Currency other than euro, a day on which
commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant Specified
Currency (which, if the Specified Currency is Australian dollars or New Zealand dollars, shall be Sydney and Auckland, respectively) or (2) in relation to any sum payable in euro, a day on which the TARGET System is operating.

  

	 	(f)	 Interpretation of principal and interest 

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

 

	 	(i)	 any additional amounts which may be payable with respect to principal under Condition 7 or pursuant to any
undertaking or covenant to pay additional amounts given in addition thereto, or in substitution therefor, pursuant to the Trust Deed; 

  

	 	(ii)	 the Final Redemption Amount of the Notes; 

 

	 	(iii)	 the Early Redemption Amount of the Notes; 

 

	 	(iv)	 the Optional Redemption Amount(s) (if any) of the Notes; 

 

	 	(v)	 in relation to Zero Coupon Notes, the Amortised Face Amount (as defined in Condition 6(f)(iii)); and

  

	 	(vi)	 any premium and any other amounts (other than interest) which may be payable by the Issuer under or in respect
of the Notes. 

 Any reference in these Terms and Conditions to interest in respect of the Notes shall be deemed to
include, as applicable, any additional amounts which may be payable with respect to interest under Condition 7 or pursuant to any undertaking or covenant to pay additional amounts given in addition thereto, or in substitution therefor, pursuant to
the Trust Deed.

(which notice will be irrevocable), at their Early Redemption Amount referred to in paragraph (f) below, together, if applicable, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption, if the Issuer satisfies the Trustee

interpretation of such laws or regulations, which amendment or change becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes, the Issuer will become obliged to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Condition 7(a) on
the next succeeding Interest Payment Date in respect of the Notes; provided, however, that (1) no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obliged to pay such
Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Notes then due and (2) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. Immediately prior to the publication of any notice of

interpretation of such laws or regulations, which amendment or change becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes, the Issuer will become obliged to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Condition 7(b) on
the next succeeding Interest Payment Date in respect of the Notes; provided, however, that (1) no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obliged to pay such
Additional Amounts in respect of the Notes were a payment in respect of the Notes then due and (2) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. Immediately prior to the

(which notice will be irrevocable), at their Early Redemption Amount referred to in paragraph (f) below, together, if applicable, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption, if, as a result of any amendment
to, or change in, the laws or regulations of The Netherlands or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any amendment to or change in an official application or interpretation of such laws or
regulations, which amendment or change becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes, the Issuer will become obliged to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Condition 7(b) on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date in respect of the Notes; provided, however, that (1) no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obliged to pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in

	 	(c)	 Redemption at the option of the Issuer (Issuer Call) 

This Condition 6(c) applies to Notes which are subject to redemption prior to the Maturity Date at the option of the Issuer (other than
for taxation reasons), such option being referred to as an “Issuer Call”. The applicable Final Terms contains provisions applicable to any Issuer Call and must be read in conjunction with this Condition 6(c) for full
information on any Issuer Call. In particular, the applicable Final Terms will identify, as applicable, the Optional Redemption Date(s), the Optional Redemption Amount (or, if applicable, that the Optional Redemption Amount(s) applicable to any
Optional Redemption Date will be the Make-whole Amount), any minimum or maximum amount of Notes which can be redeemed and the applicable notice periods. 

If Issuer Call is specified in the applicable Final Terms, the Issuer may (save in respect of any Notes in respect of which a Put Notice has
been given pursuant to Condition 6(e)), having given: 
  

	 	(i)	 not less than 15 nor more than 30 days’ (or, in each case, such other number of days as specified in the
applicable Final Terms) notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 not less than 15 days (or such shorter notice as such party shall accept) before the giving of the notice
referred to in (i), notice to the Agent and the Trustee, 

 (which notices shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date
fixed for redemption), redeem all or some only of the Notes then outstanding on any Optional Redemption Date and at the Optional Redemption Amount(s) applicable to such Optional Redemption Date together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but
excluding) the relevant Optional Redemption Date. Any such partial redemption must be of a nominal amount not less than the Minimum Redemption Amount and not more than the Maximum 

  
 63 

 Redemption Amount, in each case as specified in the applicable Final Terms. In the case of a
partial redemption of Notes, the Notes to be redeemed (“Redeemed Notes”) will be selected individually by lot, in the case of Redeemed Notes represented by definitive Notes, and in accordance with the rules of Euroclear and/ or
Clearstream, Luxembourg (to be reflected in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg as either a pool factor or a reduction in nominal amount, at their discretion), in the case of Redeemed Notes represented by a Global Note, not more
than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (such date of selection being hereinafter called the “Selection Date”). In the case of Redeemed Notes represented by definitive Notes, a list of the serial numbers of such Redeemed
Notes will be published in accordance with Condition 13 not less than 14 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. No exchange of the relevant Global Note will be permitted during the period from (and including) the Selection Date to (and
including) the date fixed for redemption pursuant to this paragraph (c) and notice to that effect shall be given by the Issuer to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13 at least five days prior to the Selection Date. 

If, in respect of any Optional Redemption Date, Make-whole Amount is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the Optional Redemption Amount,
the Optional Redemption Amount per Note shall be equal to the higher of the following: 
  

	 	(i)	 the nominal amount of the relevant Note; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 the nominal amount of the relevant Note multiplied by the price (as reported in writing to the Issuer and the
Trustee by the Determination Agent) expressed as a percentage (rounded to five decimal places, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) at which the Gross Redemption Yield on the Notes on the Determination Date specified in the applicable Final Terms is
equal to (A) the Gross Redemption Yield at the Quotation Time specified in the applicable Final Terms on the Determination Date of the Reference Bond specified in the applicable Final Terms (or, where the Determination Agent advises the Issuer
and the Trustee that, for reasons of illiquidity or otherwise, such Reference Bond is not appropriate for such purpose, such other government stock as the Determination Agent may recommend) plus (B) any applicable Redemption Margin specified in
the applicable Final Terms. 

 Any notice of redemption given under Condition 6(e) will override any notice of
redemption given (whether previously, on the same date or subsequently) under this Condition 6(c). 
 In this Condition: 

“Determination Agent” means the Agent (or any successor financial adviser appointed by the Issuer for the purpose of
determining the Make-whole Amount); and 
 “Gross Redemption Yield” means a yield calculated in accordance with generally
accepted market practice at such time, as advised to the Issuer and the Trustee by the Determination Agent. 
  

	 	(d)	 Clean-Up Call Option 

If Clean-Up Call is specified in the applicable Final Terms and 80 per cent. or more in nominal
amount of the Notes originally issued (which shall for this purpose include any further Notes issued pursuant to Condition 15) have been redeemed or purchased and cancelled, the Issuer may, having given: 

 

	 	(i)	 not less than 15 nor more than 30 days’ (or, in each case, such other number of days as specified in the
applicable Final Terms) notice to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 not less than 15 days (or such shorter notice as such party shall accept) before the giving of the notice
referred to in (i), notice to the Agent and the Trustee, 

 (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date
fixed for redemption) redeem or, at the Issuer’s option, purchase (or procure the purchase of) on any Interest Payment Date (if the relevant Note is a Floating Rate Note) or at any time (if the relevant Note is not a Floating Rate Note), all
but not some only of the Notes then outstanding at the Clean-Up Redemption Amount specified in the applicable Final Terms together with interest accrued (if any) to (but excluding) the date fixed for
redemption. 

  
 64 

	 	(e)	 Redemption at the option of the Noteholders (Investor Put) 

This Condition 6(e) applies to Notes which are subject to redemption prior to the Maturity Date at the option of the Noteholder, such
option being referred to as an “Investor Put”. The applicable Final Terms contains provisions applicable to any Investor Put and must be read in conjunction with this Condition 6(e) for full information on any Investor Put.
In particular, the applicable Final Terms will identify the Optional Redemption Date(s), the Optional Redemption Amount and the applicable notice periods. 

If Investor Put is specified in the applicable Final Terms, upon the holder of any Note giving to the Issuer in accordance with Condition 13
not less than 15 nor more than 30 days’ (or, in each case, such other number of days as specified in the applicable Final Terms) notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) the Issuer will, upon the expiry of such notice, redeem, subject to, and
in accordance with, the terms specified in the applicable Final Terms, in whole (but not in part), such Note on the Optional Redemption Date and at the Optional Redemption Amount together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the
Optional Redemption Date. 
 To exercise the right to require redemption of a Note the holder of this Note must, if the relevant Note is in
definitive form and held outside Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, deliver at the specified office of any Paying Agent at any time during normal business hours of such Paying Agent falling within the notice period a duly completed and signed
notice of exercise in the form (for the time being current) obtainable from any specified office of any Paying Agent (a “Put Notice”) and in which the holder must specify a bank account (or, if payment is required to be made by
cheque, an address) to which payment is to be made under this Condition accompanied by the relevant Note or evidence satisfactory to the Paying Agent concerned that such Note will, following delivery of the Put Notice, be held to its order or under
its control. If a Note is represented by a Global Note or is in definitive form and held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, to exercise the right to require redemption of such Note the holder must, within the notice period, give notice to
the Agent of such exercise in accordance with the standard procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (which may include notice being given on his instruction by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or any common depositary or common
safekeeper, as the case may be, for them to the Agent by electronic means) in a form acceptable to Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg from time to time and, if the relevant Note is represented by a Global Note, at the same time present or procure
the presentation of the relevant Global Note to the Agent for notation accordingly. 
  

	 	(f)	 Early Redemption Amounts 

For the purpose of paragraph (b) above and Condition 9, the Notes will be redeemed at the Early Redemption Amount calculated as
follows: 
  

	 	(i)	 in the case of Notes with a Final Redemption Amount equal to the Issue Price, at the Final Redemption Amount
thereof; 

  

	 	(ii)	 in the case of Notes (other than Zero Coupon Notes) with a Final Redemption Amount which is or may be less or
greater than the Issue Price, at the amount specified in the applicable Final Terms or, if no such amount or manner is so specified in the applicable Final Terms, at their nominal amount; or 

 

	 	(iii)	 in the case of Zero Coupon Notes, at an amount (the “Amortised Face Amount”) equal to the sum
of: 

  

	 	(A)	 the Reference Price; and 

  
 65 

	 	(B)	 the product of the Accrual Yield (compounded annually) being applied to the Reference Price from (and
including) the Issue Date of the first Tranche of the Notes to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption or (as the case may be) the date upon which such Notes become due and repayable. 

Where such calculation is to be made for a period which is not a whole number of years, it shall be made (i) in the case of a Zero Coupon
Note payable in a Specified Currency other than Sterling, on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each or (ii) in the case of a Zero Coupon Note payable in Sterling, on the basis
of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 365 (or, if any of the days elapsed falls in a leap year, the sum of (x) the number of those days falling in a leap year divided by 366 and (y) the number of those days falling in a non-leap year divided by 365). 
  

	 	(g)	 Purchases 

The Issuer, the Guarantors or any other subsidiary (as defined in the Trust Deed) of the Issuer or any Guarantor may at any time purchase Notes
(provided that, in the case of definitive Notes, all unmatured Coupons and Talons appertaining thereto are purchased therewith) at any price in the open market or otherwise. If purchases are made by tender, tenders must be available to all
Noteholders alike. Such Notes may be held, reissued, resold or, at the option of the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor, surrendered to any Paying Agent for cancellation. 
  

	 	(h)	 Cancellation 

All Notes which are redeemed will forthwith be cancelled (together with all unmatured Coupons and Talons attached thereto or surrendered
therewith at the time of redemption). All Notes so cancelled and any Notes purchased and cancelled pursuant to paragraph (g) above (together with all unmatured Coupons and Talons cancelled therewith) shall be forwarded to the Agent and
cannot be reissued or resold. 
  

	 	(i)	 Late payment on Zero Coupon Notes 

If the amount payable in respect of any Zero Coupon Note upon redemption of such Zero Coupon Note pursuant to paragraph (a), (b),
(c), (d) or (e) above or upon its becoming due and repayable as provided in Condition 9 is improperly withheld or refused, the amount due and repayable in respect of such Zero Coupon Note shall be the amount calculated as provided
in paragraph (f)(iii) above as though the references therein to the date fixed for the redemption or the date upon which such Zero Coupon Note becomes due and payable were replaced by references to the date which is the earlier of: 

 

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

  

	 	(ii)	 five days after the date on which the full amount of the moneys payable in respect of such Zero Coupon Note has
been received by the Agent or the Trustee and notice to that effect has been given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13. 

  

	7	 Taxation 

  

	 	(a)	 Where the Issuer is BATIF 

 

	 	(1)	 The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply where the Issuer is BATIF. 

 

	 	(2)	 All payments of principal and interest by the Issuer or any Guarantor will be made without withholding or
deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges (together, “Taxes”) of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the United Kingdom or
any political subdivision thereof or any authority thereof or therein having power to levy the same unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor (as the case may be) shall pay such
amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as will result in the receipt by the 

  
 66 

 Noteholders and the Couponholders of such amounts as would have been received by them had
no such Taxes been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that no such Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of Notes or Coupons: 
  

	 	(i)	 presented for payment by or on behalf of a Noteholder or Couponholder who is liable for such withheld or
deducted Taxes by reason of his having some connection with the United Kingdom other than the mere holding of a Note or Coupon; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 to, or to a third party on behalf of, a holder if such withholding or deduction may be avoided by complying
with any statutory requirement or by making a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to any authority of or in the United Kingdom, unless such holder proves that he is not entitled
so to comply or to make such declaration or claim; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 presented for payment in the United Kingdom; or 

 

	 	(iv)	 presented for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or
Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the Relevant Date. 

 

	 	(b)	 Where the Issuer is BATCAP 

 

	 	(1)	 The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply where the Issuer is BATCAP. 

 

	 	(2)	 All payments of principal and interest by the Issuer or any Guarantor will be made without withholding or
deduction for or on account of any Taxes of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any authority thereof or therein having power to levy the same
unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor (as the case may be) shall pay such Additional Amounts as will result in the receipt by the Noteholders and the Couponholders of such
amounts as would have been received by them had no such Taxes been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that the foregoing obligations shall not apply to: 

 

	 	(i)	 any such Taxes which would not have been so imposed but for (i) the existence of any present or former
connection between the holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of or possessor of a power over such holder, if such holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership or a corporation) and the United States, including,
without limitation, such holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been engaged in a trade or business therein or being or having been
present therein, or having or having had a permanent establishment therein, or (ii) such holder’s present or former status as a personal holding company, passive foreign investment company, controlled foreign corporation or private
foundation or other tax-exempt organisation (in each case, for United States federal income tax purposes), or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income taxes;

  

	 	(ii)	 any such Taxes which would not have been so imposed but for the presentation of a Note or Coupon for payment
more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the
Relevant Date; 

  

	 	(iii)	 any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property Taxes or any similar Taxes;

  
 67 

	 	(iv)	 any such Taxes which would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information,
documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder of a Note or Coupon, if such compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the United States
Treasury Department or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Taxes; 

  

	 	(v)	 any such Taxes which are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments in respect of a Note
or Coupon; 

  

	 	(vi)	 any such Taxes imposed on interest received by a ten per cent. shareholder of the Issuer within the meaning of
Section 871(h)(3)(B) or Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (or any amended or successor provisions); 

 

	 	(vii)	 any such Taxes imposed by reason of a holder of a Note or Coupon being or having been a bank receiving payments
on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions); 

 

	 	(viii)	 any backup withholding imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor
provisions);

provisions); and 

  

	 	(x)	 any combination of clauses (i) to (ix) above; 

nor will any Additional Amounts be paid in respect of a Note or Coupon to any holder who is not a United States Alien or to any United States
Alien who is a fiduciary or partnership or person other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such a partnership or the beneficial owner would not
have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of such Note or Coupon. The term “United States Alien” means any person who, for United States federal income tax
purposes, is a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust or a foreign partnership any partner of
which is for United States federal income tax purposes a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or
trust or any such foreign partnership. 
  

	 	(c)	 Where the Issuer is BATHTN or BATNF 

 

	 	(1)	 The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply where the Issuer is BATHTN or BATNF. 

 

	 	(2)	 All payments of principal and interest by the Issuer or any Guarantor will be made without withholding or
deduction for or on account of any Taxes of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of The Netherlands or any political subdivision thereof or any authority thereof or therein having power to levy the same
unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor (as the case may be) shall pay such Additional Amounts as will result in the receipt by the Noteholders and the Couponholders of such
amounts as would have been received by them had no such Taxes been required to be withheld or deducted; provided that no such Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of Notes or Coupons: 

 

	 	(i)	 presented for payment by or on behalf of a Noteholder or Couponholder who is liable for such withheld or
deducted Taxes by reason of his having some connection with The Netherlands other than the mere holding of a Note or Coupon; or 

  
 68 

	 	(ii)	 to, or to a third party on behalf of, a holder if such withholding or deduction may be avoided by complying
with any statutory requirement or by making a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to any authority of or in The Netherlands, unless such holder proves that he is not entitled so
to comply or to make such declaration or claim; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 presented for payment in The Netherlands; or 

 

	 	(iv)	 presented for payment more than 30 days after the Relevant Date except to the extent that a Noteholder or
Couponholder would have been entitled to payment of such Additional Amounts if he had presented his Note or Coupon for payment on the thirtieth day after the Relevant Date. 

 

	 	(d)	 The Trust Deed contains provisions (mutatis mutandis) to those contained in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above
in relation to the relevant taxing jurisdiction of each Guarantor. 

  

	 	(e)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms and Conditions, any amounts to be paid on any Note or Coupon
by or on behalf of the relevant Issuer will be paid net of any deduction or withholding imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions), including any regulations thereunder or official interpretations
thereof, or required pursuant to an agreement described in Section 1471(b) of the Code or an intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation of any of the foregoing (or any fiscal
or regulatory legislation, rules or practices implementing such an intergovernmental agreement) (any such withholding or deduction, a “FATCA Withholding”). Neither the relevant Issuer nor any Guarantor nor any other person will be
required to pay any Additional Amounts in respect of FATCA Withholding. 

  

	 	(f)	 For the purpose of this Condition 7, “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any payment, the
date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof was duly provided for, whichever occurs the later. 

  

	8	 Prescription 

The Notes and Coupons will become void unless presented for payment within a period of ten years (in the case of principal) and five years (in
the case of interest) after the Relevant Date (as defined in Condition 7) therefor. 
 There shall not be included in any Coupon sheet issued
on exchange of a Talon any Coupon the claim for payment in respect of which would be void pursuant to this Condition or Condition 5(b) or any Talon which would be void pursuant to Condition 5(b). 

 

	9	 Events of Default 

 

	 	(a)	 The Trustee at its discretion may, and if so requested in writing by Noteholders holding at least one-quarter in nominal amount of the Notes then outstanding or if so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution shall (subject in each case to being indemnified to its satisfaction), (provided that, except in the case
of the happening of any of the events mentioned in paragraph (i) below, the Trustee shall have certified in writing to the Issuer that, in its opinion, such event is materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders) give notice to the
Issuer that the Notes are, and they shall thereupon immediately become, due and repayable at their Early Redemption Amount referred to in Condition 6(f), together with accrued interest as provided in the Trust Deed, if any of the following events
occurs and is continuing (each, an “Event of Default”): 

  

	 	(i)	 default is made for a period of seven days or more in the payment on the due date of any principal on the Notes

 69 

	 	(ii)	 default is made by the Issuer or any Guarantor in the performance or observance of any covenant or provision
binding on it under or pursuant to the Trust Deed or the Notes (other than a covenant for the payment of principal or interest due on or in respect of the Notes) and (except where the Trustee considers such default to be incapable of remedy when no
notice as is referred to below is required, and for this purpose, something shall remain capable of remedy notwithstanding that it was required to have been previously done) such default continues on the thirtieth day after service by the Trustee on
the Issuer or, as the case may be, the relevant Guarantor of written notice requiring the same to be remedied (or such later date as the Trustee may permit); or 

 

	 	(iii)	 any other Borrowed Moneys Indebtedness (as defined below) of either the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes due and
repayable by reason of any event of default (howsoever described) prior to its stated date of payment or any other Borrowed Moneys Indebtedness of either the Issuer or any Guarantor is not paid within the longer of seven days of its due date or any
applicable grace period therefor (and for such purpose there shall be deemed to be a grace period of not less than seven days in respect of any obligation under any guarantee or indemnity or otherwise as surety), provided that no such event shall
constitute an Event of Default unless the Borrowed Moneys Indebtedness either (a) in any particular case amounts to at least £50,000,000 or the equivalent thereof in any other currency, or (b) when aggregated with other Borrowed
Moneys Indebtedness then so due and repayable or not so paid amounts to at least £200,000,000 or the equivalent thereof in any other currency; or 

  

	 	(iv)	 where the Issuer or any Guarantor is incorporated in England and Wales: 

 

	 	(A)	 an order is made or an effective resolution is passed for the
winding-up of the Issuer or a relevant Guarantor, or any similar action is taken in any other jurisdiction; or 

  

	 	(B)	 a distress or execution or other legal process is levied or enforced against or an encumbrancer takes

or paid out within 45 days after such execution or appointment; or 

  

	 	(C)	 an administration order is made in relation to the Issuer or a relevant Guarantor which is not discharged,
stayed or removed within 45 days of such order being made; or 

  

	 	(v)	 where the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor is BATCAP: 

 

	 	(A)	 a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction is entered adjudging BATCAP a bankrupt or insolvent, or
approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganisation of BATCAP under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal or state applicable law, and such decree or order is continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 45
days; or 

  

	 	(B)	 a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or
assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of BATCAP is entered in respect of the whole of its property or a part thereof, which is substantial in relation to the Group taken as a whole, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, and such decree or order is continued and undischarged and unstayed for a period of 45 days; or 

  

	 	(C)	 BATCAP institutes proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or consents to the filing of a bankruptcy
proceeding against it, or files a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganisation under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar federal or state applicable law, or consents to the filing of any such petition, or consents to the
appointment of a receiver or liquidator or trustee or assignee in bankruptcy or insolvency of it or of the whole of its property or a part thereof (which part is substantial in relation to the Group taken as a whole) or consents to the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs; 

  
 70 

 (the terms used in this sub-paragraph
(v) shall be construed as they would be in the context of a proceeding instituted and conducted pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other similar Federal or state applicable law); or 

 

	 	(vi)	 where the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor is BATHTN or BATNF: 

 

	 	(A)	 an order is made or an effective resolution is passed for the
winding-up of BATHTN or BATNF or any similar action is taken in any other jurisdiction, including, without limitation, an application being made by BATHTN or BATNF for a ‘surseance van
betaling’ (within the meaning of The Netherlands Bankruptcy Code (Faillissementswet)); or 

  

	 	(B)	 a distress or execution or other legal process is levied or enforced against or an encumbrancer takes

	 	(B)	 stops or threatens to stop payment of its obligations generally or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on its
business (except in either case for the purposes of amalgamation, reconstruction or corporate reorganisation, the terms of which shall have been previously approved by the Trustee in writing or by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Noteholders); or

  

	 	(viii)	 for any reason whatsoever any guarantee ceases to be binding on and enforceable against the relevant Guarantor
other than with the prior written consent of the Trustee or the sanction of an Extraordinary Resolution of the Noteholders. 

For this purpose, “Borrowed Moneys Indebtedness” means, in relation to any person, any obligation (whether incurred as

resulting from or in connection with a disposal or divestiture of all or part of the interests in financial services businesses of the Group or any reconstruction, amalgamation or corporate reorganisation (or any similar action in any other

American Tobacco and its Subsidiaries together with its or their ultimate Holding Company (if any) (as defined in the Trust Deed) and any such ultimate Holding Company’s Subsidiaries. 

 

	 	(b)	 At any time after the Notes become due and repayable pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Condition the
Trustee may, at its discretion and without further notice, institute such proceedings against the Issuer and/or any Guarantor as it may think fit to enforce payment of the Notes, but it shall not be bound to take any such proceedings unless
(i) it shall have been so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution or so requested in writing by Noteholders holding at least one-quarter in principal amount of the Notes outstanding and (ii) it shall
have been indemnified to its satisfaction. No Noteholder or Couponholder may proceed directly against the Issuer or any relevant Guarantor unless the Trustee, having become bound to proceed, fails to do so within a reasonable period and such failure
is continuing. 

  

	10	 Replacement of Notes, Coupons and Talons 

Should any Note Coupon or Talon be lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed, it may be replaced at the specified office of the Agent upon
payment by the claimant of such costs and expenses as may be incurred in connection therewith and on such terms as to evidence and indemnity the Issuer may reasonably require. Mutilated or defaced Notes Coupons or Talons must be surrendered before
replacements will be issued. 
  

	11	 Agents 

The names of the initial Paying Agents and their initial specified offices are set out below. 

The Issuer is entitled to vary or terminate the appointment of any Paying Agent and/or appoint additional or other Paying Agents and/or approve
any change in the specified office through which any Paying Agent acts, provided that: 
  

	 	(i)	 there will at all times be an Agent; 

 

	 	(ii)	 so long as the Notes are listed on any stock exchange or admitted to trading by any other relevant authority,
there will at all times be a Paying Agent with a specified office in such place as may be required by the rules and regulations of the relevant stock exchange or any other relevant authority; and 

 

	 	(iii)	 there will at all times be a Paying Agent with a specified office in a city approved by the Trustee in Western
Europe outside the United Kingdom and The Netherlands. 

 In addition, the Issuer and the Guarantors shall forthwith
appoint a Paying Agent having a specified office in New York City in the circumstances described in Condition 5(d). Any variation, termination, appointment or change shall only take effect (other than in the case of insolvency, when it shall
be of immediate effect) after not less than 30 nor more than 45 days’ prior notice thereof shall have been given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13. 

In acting under the Agency Agreement, the Agents act solely as agents of the Issuer and the Guarantors and, in certain circumstances specified
therein, of the Trustee and do not assume any obligation to, or relationship of agency or trust with, any Noteholders or Couponholders. 
  

	12	 Exchange of Talons 

On and after the Interest Payment Date on which the final Coupon comprised in any Coupon sheet matures, the Talon (if any) forming part of such
Coupon sheet may be surrendered at the specified office of the Agent or any other Paying Agent in exchange for a further Coupon sheet including (if such further Coupon sheet does not include Coupons to (and including) the final date for the payment
of interest due in respect of the Note to which it appertains) a further Talon, subject to the provisions of Condition 8. 

  
 72 

	13	 Notices 

All notices regarding the Notes will be deemed to be validly given if published in a leading English language daily newspaper of general
circulation in London. It is expected that such publication will be made in the Financial Times in London. The Issuer shall also ensure that notices are duly published in a manner which complies with the rules and regulations of any
stock exchange or any other relevant authority on which the Notes are for the time being listed or by which they have been admitted to trading. Any such notice will be deemed to have been given on the date of the first publication or, where required
to be published in more than one newspaper, on the date of the first publication in all required newspapers. 
 Until such time as any
definitive Notes are issued, there may, so long as any Global Notes representing the Notes are held in their entirety on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, be substituted for such publication in such newspaper the delivery of the
relevant notice to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg for communication by them to the holders of the Notes and, in addition, for so long as any Notes are listed on a stock exchange or are admitted to trading by another relevant authority and
the rules of that stock exchange or other relevant authority so require, such notice will be published in a daily newspaper of general circulation in the place or places required by that stock exchange or other relevant authority. Any such notice
shall be deemed to have been given to the holders of the Notes on the fourth day after the day on which the said notice was given to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg. 

Notices to be given by any Noteholder shall be in writing and given by lodging the same, together with the relative Note or Notes, with the
Agent. Whilst any of the Notes are represented by a Global Note, such notice may be given by any holder of a Note to the Agent through Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, in such manner as the Agent and Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, may approve for this purpose. 
  

	14	 Meetings of Noteholders, Modification and Waiver 

The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening meetings of the Noteholders to consider any matter affecting their interests, including the
sanctioning by an Extraordinary Resolution of a modification of the Notes, the Coupons or any of the provisions of the Trust Deed. Such a meeting may be convened by the Issuer, any Guarantor or the Trustee and shall (subject to being indemnified to
its satisfaction) be convened by the Trustee upon a request by Noteholders holding not less than ten per cent. in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being remaining outstanding. The quorum at any such meeting for passing an Extraordinary
Resolution is one or more persons holding or representing not less than a clear majority in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned meeting one or more persons being or representing Noteholders whatever the
nominal amount of the Notes so held or represented, except that at any meeting the business of which includes the modification of certain provisions of the Notes or Coupons or the Trust Deed (including modifying the date of maturity of the Notes or
any date for payment of interest thereon, reducing or cancelling the amount of principal or the rate of interest payable in respect of the Notes or altering the currency of payment of the Notes or Coupons) the quorum shall be one or more persons
holding or representing not less than three-fourths in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding, or at any adjourned such meeting one or more persons holding or representing not less than
one-fourth in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. An Extraordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the Noteholders shall be binding on all the Noteholders, whether or not they are
present at the meeting, and on all Couponholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a resolution in writing signed by persons holding or representing not less than 75 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding
shall for all purposes be as valid and effective as an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with the provisions contained in the Trust Deed. 

The Trustee may agree, without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders, to any modification of, or to the waiver or authorisation of
any breach or proposed breach of, any of these Terms and Conditions or any of the provisions of the Trust Deed, or determine, without any such consent as aforesaid, that any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default (as defined in the Trust
Deed) shall not be treated as such, which in any such case is not, in the opinion of the Trustee, materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders or may agree, without any such consent as aforesaid, to any modification which is of a
formal, minor or technical nature, to correct a manifest error or to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. 

  
 73 

 The Trustee may also agree, subject to such amendment of the Trust Deed and such other
conditions as the Trustee may require, but without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders, to the substitution (i) in place of the Issuer as the principal debtor under the Notes and the Trust Deed of any Guarantor or any successor in
business or Holding Company of any Guarantor or any other subsidiary of any Guarantor, such successor in business or such Holding Company provided that all payments in respect of the Notes continue to be unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by
each Guarantor or the successor in business or Holding Company of each Guarantor in the manner provided in the Trust Deed (or, where a Guarantor or its successor in business or Holding Company is the new principal debtor, by the other Guarantors or
their successors in business or Holding Companies); or (ii) in place of any Guarantor as guarantor of the Notes under the Trust Deed, of any successor in business or Holding Company of any Guarantor. In the case of any proposed substitution,
the Trustee may agree, without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders, to a change of the law governing the Notes, the Coupons and/or the Trust Deed, provided that such change would not, in the opinion of the Trustee, be materially
prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders. Any such modification, waiver, authorisation, determination or substitution shall be binding on the Noteholders and the Couponholders and, unless the Trustee otherwise agrees, any such modification or
substitution shall be notified to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13 as soon as practicable thereafter. 
 In connection with
the exercise by it of any of its trusts, powers, authorities and discretions (including, without limitation, any modification, waiver, authorisation or determination), the Trustee shall have regard to the general interests of the Noteholders as a
class but shall not have regard to any interests arising from circumstances particular to individual Noteholders or Couponholders (whatever their number) and, in particular but without limitation, shall not have regard to the consequences of any
such exercise for individual Noteholders or Couponholders (whatever their number) resulting from their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or otherwise connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular territory or any
political sub-division thereof and the Trustee shall not be entitled to require, nor shall any Noteholder or Couponholder be entitled to claim, from the Issuer, any Guarantor, the Trustee or any other person
any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequence of any such exercise upon individual Noteholders or Couponholders except to the extent already provided for in Condition 7 and/or any undertaking given in addition to, or in
substitution for, Condition 7 pursuant to the Trust Deed. 
  

	15	 Further Issues 

The Issuer shall be at liberty from time to time without the consent of the Noteholders or the Couponholders to create and issue further notes
having terms and conditions the same as the Notes or the same in all respects save for the amount and date of the first payment of interest thereon and so that the same shall be consolidated and form a single Series with the outstanding Notes. The
Trust Deed contains provisions for convening a single meeting of the Noteholders and the holders of notes of other Series where the Trustee so decides. 
  

	16	 Indemnification of the Trustee and its Contracting with the Issuer and the Guarantors

 The Trust Deed contains provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee and for its relief from responsibility,
including provisions relieving it from taking action unless indemnified to its satisfaction. 
 The Trust Deed also contains provisions
pursuant to which the Trustee is entitled, inter alia, (i) to enter into business transactions with the Issuer and/or any Guarantor and/or any Subsidiaries of any of them and to act as trustee for the holders of any other securities
issued or guaranteed by, or relating to, the Issuer and/or any Guarantor and/or any Subsidiaries of any of them, (ii) to exercise and enforce its rights, comply with its obligations and perform its duties under or in relation to any such
transactions or, as the case may be, any such trusteeship without regard to the interests of, or consequences for, the Noteholders or Couponholders, and (iii) to retain and not be liable to account for any profit made or any other amount or
benefit received thereby or in connection therewith. 

  
 74 

	17	 Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 

No person shall have any right to enforce any term or condition of this Note under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 but this
does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available apart from that Act. 
  

	18	 Governing Law and Submission to Jurisdiction 

 

	 	(a)	 The Trust Deed, the Notes and the Coupons, and any non-contractual
obligations arising out of or in connection with them, are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law. 

  

	 	(b)	 Each of the parties to the Trust Deed has in the Trust Deed irrevocably agreed that the courts of England are
to have jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with the Trust Deed, the Notes and/or the Coupons (including a dispute relating to any non-contractual obligations arising
out of or in connection with them) and that accordingly any suit, action or proceedings (together referred to as “Proceedings”) arising out of or in connection with the Trust Deed, the Notes and the Coupons (including any
proceedings relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them) may be brought in such courts. 

 

	 	(c)	 Each of the parties to the Trust Deed has in the Trust Deed irrevocably and unconditionally waived any
objection which it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of any such Proceedings in any such court and any claim that any such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably and unconditionally agreed
that a judgment in any such Proceedings brought in the English courts shall be conclusive and binding upon it and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 

 

	 	(d)	 Nothing contained in this Condition shall limit any right to take Proceedings against any of the parties to the
Trust Deed in any other court of competent jurisdiction (outside the Contracting States, as defined in Section 1(3) of the Civil Jurisdiction and Judgments Act 1982, as amended), nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions
preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not. 

  

	 	(e)	 Each of BATHTN, BATNF and BATCAP has in the Trust Deed appointed British American Tobacco at its registered
office for the time being (being at the date of this Base Prospectus at Globe House, 4 Temple Place, London WC2R 2PG) as its agent for service of process, and undertaken that, in the event of British American Tobacco ceasing so to act or ceasing to
be registered in England, each of BATHTN, BATNF and BATCAP will appoint another person as its agent for service of process in England in respect of any Proceedings. 

 

	 	(f)	 Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve proceedings in any other manner permitted by law.

 GLOBAL NOTE 

This Note is a Global Note in respect of a duly authorised issue of Notes of the Issuer (the Notes) of the Nominal Amount, Specified Currency(ies) and
Specified Denomination(s) as are specified in the Final Terms applicable to the Notes (the Final Terms), a copy of which is annexed hereto. References herein to the Conditions shall be to the Terms and Conditions of the Notes as set out in
Schedule 1 to the Trust Deed (as defined below) as supplemented, replaced and modified by the Final Terms but, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the said Conditions and the information in the Final Terms, the Final Terms will
prevail. Words and expressions defined in the Conditions shall bear the same meanings when used in this Global Note. This Global Note is issued subject to, and with the benefit of, the Conditions and a Trust Deed (such Trust Deed as modified and/or
supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the Trust Deed) dated 6 July 1998. 
 The Issuer, subject to and in accordance with the
Conditions and the Trust Deed, promises to pay to the bearer hereof on the Maturity Date and/or on such earlier date(s) as all or any of the Notes represented by this Global Note may become due and repayable in accordance with the Conditions and the
Trust Deed, the amount payable under the Conditions in respect of such Notes on each such date and to pay interest (if any) on the nominal amount of the Notes from time to time represented by this Global Note calculated and payable as provided in
the Conditions and the Trust Deed together with any other sums payable under the Conditions and the Trust Deed, upon presentation and, at maturity, surrender of this Global Note to or to the order of the Agent or any other Paying Agent located
outside the United States, its territories and possessions (except as provided in the Conditions) from time to time appointed by the Issuer in respect of the Notes. 

If the Final Terms indicates that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note shall be
the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records of both Euroclear Bank SA/NV (Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, SA (Clearstream, Luxembourg and together with Euroclear, the relevant Clearing Systems). The records of the
relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this Global Note means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of each such customer’s interest in the Notes) shall be conclusive evidence of
the nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note and, for these purposes a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Notes represented
by this Global Note at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time. 
 If the Final Terms indicates
that this Global Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, the nominal amount of the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be the amount stated in the applicable Final Terms or, if lower, the nominal amount most recently entered by or on
behalf of the Issuer in the relevant column in Part II or III of Schedule One hereto or in Schedule Two hereto. 
 On any redemption of, or payment of
interest being made in respect of, or purchase and cancellation of, any of the Notes represented by this Global Note the Issuer shall procure that: 
  

	(a)	 if the Final Terms indicates that this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note, details of such
redemption, payment or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems, and, upon any such entry being made, the nominal amount of the Notes recorded in the records of the
relevant Clearing Systems and represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes so redeemed or purchased and cancelled; or 

 

	(b)	 if the Final Terms indicates that this Global Note is not intended to be a New Global Note, details of such
redemption, payment, purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered by or on behalf of the Issuer in Schedule One hereto and the relevant space in Schedule One hereto recording any such redemption, payment, purchase and cancellation
(as the case may be) shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer. Upon any such redemption or purchase and cancellation the nominal amount of this Global Note and the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the nominal amount of
such Notes so redeemed or purchased and cancelled. 

  
 79 

 Payments due in respect of Notes for the time being represented by this Global Note shall be made to the
bearer of this Global Note and each payment so made will discharge the Issuer’s obligations in respect thereof. Any failure to make entries referred to above shall not affect such discharge. 

This Global Note may be exchanged (free of charge) in whole, but not in part, for Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons and/or Talons in or
substantially in the forms set out in Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4 of Schedule 2 to the Trust Deed (on the basis that all the appropriate details have been included on the face of such Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons and/or Talons and the
relevant information supplementing, replacing or modifying the Conditions appearing in the Final Terms has been endorsed on or attached to such Definitive Notes) only upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event. 

An Exchange Event means: 
  

	(i)	 both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg have terminated their businesses without a successor clearing
organisation being available; or 

  

	(ii)	 the relevant Issuer has requested the issuance of definitive Notes upon a change in tax law that would be
adverse to such Issuer but for the issuance of definitive Notes in bearer form. 

 Upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event: 

 

	(A)	 the Issuer will promptly give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13 upon the occurrence of such
Exchange Event; and 

  

	(B)	 Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg (acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest in this
Global Note) or the Trustee may give notice to the Agent requesting exchange and, in the event of the occurrence of an Exchange Event as described in (ii) above, the Issuer may also give notice to the Agent requesting exchange. Any such
exchange shall occur on a date specified in the notice not later than 60 days after the date of receipt of the first relevant notice by the Agent. 

The first notice requesting exchange in accordance with the above provisions shall give rise to the issue of Definitive Notes for the total nominal amount of
Notes represented by this Global Note. 
 Any such exchange as aforesaid may be made on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are open
for general business in London. 
 The aggregate nominal amount of Definitive Notes issued upon an exchange of this Global Note will be equal to the
aggregate nominal amount of this Global Note. Upon exchange of this Global Note for Definitive Notes, the Agent shall cancel it or procure that it is cancelled. 

Until the exchange of the whole of this Global Note as aforesaid, the bearer hereof shall (subject as provided in the next paragraph) in all respects be
entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of Definitive Notes and the relative Coupons and/or Talons (if any) in the form(s) set out in Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4 (as applicable) of Schedule 2 to the Trust Deed. 

Each person (other than Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg) who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as the
holder of a particular nominal amount of the Notes represented by this Global Note (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the nominal amount of such Notes standing to the account of
any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Trustee, the Agent and any other Paying Agent as the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for
all purposes other than with respect to the payment of principal and interest on such nominal amount of such Notes, the right to which shall be vested, as against the Issuer, solely in the bearer of this Global Note in accordance with and subject to
the terms of this Global Note and the Trust Deed. 

  
 80 

 This Global Note and any non-contractual obligations arising out of
or in connection with it is governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law. 
 No rights are conferred on any person under the
Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Global Note, but this does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available apart from that Act. 

This Global Note shall not be valid unless (i) authenticated by Citibank, N.A., London Branch as Agent and (ii) if the Final Terms indicates that
this Global Note is intended to be a New Global Note and Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg has been appointed as the common safekeeper, effectuated by such common safekeeper. 

This Global Note is transferable only to a successor clearing organisation that is subject to the same terms, in accordance with the rules and procedures for
the time being of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be. 
 IN WITNESS whereof the Issuer has caused this Global Note to be signed
manually or in facsimile by two persons duly authorised on its behalf.

 SCHEDULE 3 

PROVISIONS FOR MEETINGS OF NOTEHOLDERS 
  

	1.	 The following expressions have the following meanings: 

 

	 	(a)	 voting certificate means a certificate in English issued by a Paying Agent and dated in which it is
stated: 

  

	 	(i)	 that on that date Notes (whether in definitive form or represented by a Global Note and not being Notes in
respect of which a block voting instruction has been issued and is outstanding in respect of the meeting specified in such voting certificate or any adjournment of it) were deposited with that Paying Agent (or held to its order at a bank or other
depositary) or blocked in an account with a clearing system and that no such Notes will cease to be so deposited or held or blocked until the earlier of: 

  

	 	(A)	 the conclusion of the meeting specified in such certificate or, if later, any adjournment of it; and

  

	 	(B)	 the surrender of the certificate to the Paying Agent which issued it; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 that its bearer is entitled to attend and vote at such meeting or any adjournment of it in respect of the Notes
represented by such certificate; 

  

	 	(b)	 block voting instruction means a document in English issued by a Paying Agent and dated in which:

  

	 	(i)	 it is certified that Notes (whether in definitive form or represented by a Global Note and not being Notes in
respect of which a voting certificate has been issued and is outstanding in respect of the meeting specified in such block voting instruction or any adjournment of it) have been deposited with that Paying Agent (or to its order at a bank or other
depositary) or blocked in an account with a clearing system and that no such Notes will cease to be so deposited or held or blocked until the earlier of: 

  

	 	(A)	 the conclusion of the meeting specified in such document or, if later, any adjournment of it; and

  

	 	(B)	 the surrender, not less than 48 hours before the time fixed for such meeting or adjournment, of the receipt for
each such deposited Note which is to be released to the Paying Agent which issued it or (as the case may be) the Notes ceasing with the agreement of the Paying Agent to be held to its order or under its control or so blocked and the notification of
the necessary amendment to the block voting instruction by such Paying Agent to the Issuer; 

  

	 	(ii)	 it is certified that each holder of such Notes or a duly authorised agent on his behalf has instructed that
Paying Agent that the votes attributable to his Notes so deposited or held or blocked should be cast in a particular way in relation to each resolution to be put to such meeting or any adjourned such meeting and that all such instructions are,
during the period of 48 hours before the time fixed for such meeting or adjourned meeting, neither revocable nor subject to amendment; 

  
 95 

	 	(iii)	 the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes so deposited or held or blocked are listed, distinguishing with
regard to each resolution between those in respect of which instructions have been so given (A) to vote for, and (B) to vote against, the resolution; and 

 

	 	(iv)	 a person named in such document (a proxy) is authorised and instructed by that Paying Agent to vote in
respect of the Notes so listed in accordance with the instructions referred to in (iii) above as set out in such document. 

  

	 	(c)	 Extraordinary Resolution means: 

 

	 	(i)	 a resolution passed at a duly convened meeting of Noteholders held in accordance with this Trust Deed by a
majority of at least 75 per cent. of the votes cast; 

  

	 	(ii)	 a resolution in writing executed by or on behalf of the persons holding or representing not less than
75 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding who would have been entitled to vote if it had been proposed at a meeting at which they were present and may consist of several instruments in like form each
executed by or on behalf of one or more Noteholders; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 consent given by way of electronic consents through the relevant Clearing System(s) (in a form satisfactory to
the Trustee) by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 75 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. 

  

	2.	 A holder of a Note (whether in definitive form or represented by a Global Note) may obtain a voting certificate
from a Paying Agent or require a Paying Agent to issue a block voting instruction by depositing his Note with such Paying Agent or (to the satisfaction of such Paying Agent) by such Note being held to its order or under its control or being blocked
in an account with a clearing system, in each case not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the relevant meeting. Voting certificates and block voting instructions shall be valid until the relevant Notes cease to be deposited or held or
blocked pursuant to paragraph 1 and until then the holder of a voting certificate or (as the case may be) the proxy named in a block voting instruction shall, for all purposes in connection with any meeting or adjourned meeting of Noteholders, be
deemed to be the holder of the Notes to which that voting certificate or block voting instruction relates and the Paying Agent with which (or to the order of which) such Notes have been deposited, held or blocked shall be deemed for such purposes
not to be the holder of those Notes. 

  

	3.	 The Issuer, the Guarantors or the Trustee may at any time convene a meeting of Noteholders. If it receives a
written request by Noteholders holding at least 10 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding and is indemnified to its satisfaction against all costs and expenses, the Trustee shall convene a meeting of
Noteholders. Whenever any party shall take steps to convene any such meeting it shall give notice to the others of the day, time and place of such meeting and the nature of the business to be transacted thereat as soon as is practicable. Every
meeting shall be held at a time and place approved by the Trustee. 

  

	4.	 At least 21 days’ notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day of the meeting)
shall be given to the Noteholders. A copy of the notice shall be given by the party convening the meeting to the other parties. The notice shall specify the day, time and place of meeting, be given in the manner provided in the Conditions and shall
specify, unless the Trustee otherwise agrees, the nature of the resolutions to be proposed and shall include a statement to the effect that Notes may be deposited with or held to the order of or under the control of any Paying Agent or blocked in an
account with a clearing system for the purpose of obtaining voting certificates or appointing proxies but not thereafter until 48 hours before the time fixed for the relevant meeting. 

  
 96 

	5.	 A person (who may, but need not, be a Noteholder) nominated in writing by the Trustee may act as chairman of a
meeting but if no such nomination is made or if the person nominated is not present within 15 minutes after the time fixed for the meeting the Noteholders present shall choose one of their number to be chairman, failing which the Issuer may appoint
a chairman. The chairman of an adjourned meeting need not be the same person as the chairman of the original meeting. 

  

	6.	 A meeting that has been validly convened in accordance with paragraph 3 above, may be cancelled by the person
who convened such meeting by giving at least 7 days’ notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and the day of the meeting) to the Noteholders. Any meeting cancelled in accordance with this paragraph 6 shall be deemed not to have
been convened. 

  

	7.	 At a meeting one or more persons present in person holding Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being
proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 10 per cent. of the nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding shall (except for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution) form a quorum for the
transaction of business and no business (other than the choosing of a chairman) shall be transacted unless the requisite quorum be present at the commencement of business. The quorum at a meeting for passing an Extraordinary Resolution shall
(subject as provided below) be one or more persons present in person holding Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate a clear majority in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being
outstanding provided that the quorum at a meeting the business of which includes consideration of proposals specified in the proviso to paragraph 20 shall be one or more persons present holding Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being
proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than three-fourths in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. 

  

	8.	 If within 15 minutes from the time fixed for a meeting a quorum is not present the meeting shall, if convened
upon the requisition of Noteholders or if the Issuer and the Trustee agree, be dissolved. In any other case it shall stand adjourned to such date, not less than 14 nor more than 42 days later, and to such place as the chairman may decide. At such
adjourned meeting one or more persons present in person holding Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being proxies (whatever the nominal amount of the Notes so held or represented) shall form a quorum and may pass any resolution and decide
upon all matters which could properly have been dealt with at the meeting from which the adjournment took place had a quorum been present at such meeting provided that at an adjourned meeting at which an Extraordinary Resolution is to be proposed
for the purpose of effecting any of the modifications specified in the proviso to paragraph 20 the quorum shall be one or more persons so present holding Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being proxies and holding or representing in the
aggregate not less than one-fourth in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. 

  

	9.	 The chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) a meeting adjourn the meeting from time to time
and from place to place but no business shall be transacted at an adjourned meeting which might not lawfully have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. 

 

	10.	 At least 10 days’ notice of a meeting adjourned through want of a quorum shall be given in the same manner
as for an original meeting and such notice shall state the quorum required at the adjourned meeting. No notice need, however, otherwise be given of an adjourned meeting. 

 

	11.	 Each question submitted to a meeting shall be decided in the first instance by a show of hands and in case of
equality of votes the chairman shall both on a show of hands and on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) which he may have as a Noteholder or as a holder of a voting certificate or as a proxy. 

  
 97 

	12.	 Unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded at any meeting by
the chairman, the Issuer, the Guarantor(s), the Trustee or by one or more persons holding one or more Definitive Notes or voting certificates or being proxies and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than two per cent. in nominal amount
of the Notes for the time being outstanding, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by any particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without
proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution. 

  

	13.	 If a poll is demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at once or after
such adjournment as the chairman directs and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuation
of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded. 

  

	14.	 A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on a question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting
without adjournment. 

  

	15.	 The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee (through their respective representatives) and their respective
financial and legal advisers may attend and speak at any meeting of Noteholders. No one else may attend or speak at a meeting of Noteholders or have any of the powers exercisable by Noteholders in such meeting or join in requesting or convening such
meeting, unless he is the holder of a Definitive Note or a voting certificate or is a proxy. 

  

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

 

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

  

	 	(b)	 on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of each £1 or such other amount
as the Trustee may in its absolute discretion stipulate (or, in the case of meetings of holders of Notes denominated in another currency, such amount in such other currency as the Trustee in its absolute discretion may stipulate) in nominal amount
of the Definitive Notes so produced or represented by the voting certificate so produced or in respect of which he is a proxy. 

Without prejudice to the obligations of the proxies named in any block voting instruction any person entitled to more than one vote need not
use all his votes or cast all the votes to which he is entitled in the same way. 
  

	17.	 A proxy need not be a Noteholder. 

 

	18.	 Each block voting instruction shall be deposited at such place as the Trustee shall designate or approve, at
least 24 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the proxy named in the block voting instruction proposes to vote and in default the block voting instruction shall not be treated as valid unless the
chairman of the meeting decides otherwise before the meeting or adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A notarially certified copy of each block voting instruction shall if required by the Trustee be produced by the proxy at the meeting or
adjourned meeting but the Trustee shall not thereby be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity of, or the authority of, the proxy named in a block voting instruction. 

  
 98 

	19.	 A vote cast in accordance with the terms of a block voting instruction shall be valid even if the block voting
instruction or any of the Noteholders’ instructions pursuant to which it was executed has been previously revoked or amended, unless written intimation of such revocation or amendment is received from the relevant Paying Agent by the Issuer or
the Trustee at its registered office (or at such other place as the Trustee shall designate or approve) or by the chairman of the meeting in each case at least 24 hours before the time fixed for the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the block
voting instruction is used. 

  

	20.	 A meeting of Noteholders shall, subject to the Conditions, in addition to the powers given above, but without
prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by this Trust Deed, have power exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution: 

  

	 	(a)	 to sanction any proposal by the Issuer, any of the Guarantors or the Trustee for any modification, abrogation,
variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Noteholders and/or the Couponholders against the Issuer or any of the Guarantors whether or not these rights arise under this Trust Deed; 

 

	 	(b)	 to sanction the exchange or substitution for the Notes of, or the conversion of the Notes into, shares, bonds,
or other obligations or securities of the Issuer, any of the Guarantors or any other entity; 

  

	 	(c)	 to assent to any modification of this Trust Deed which shall be proposed by the Issuer, any of the Guarantors
or the Trustee; 

  

	 	(d)	 to authorise anyone to concur in and do anything necessary to carry out and give effect to an Extraordinary
Resolution; 

  

	 	(e)	 to give any authority, direction or sanction required to be given by Extraordinary Resolution;

  

	 	(f)	 to appoint any persons (whether Noteholders or not) as a committee or committees to represent the interests of
the Noteholders and to confer upon them any powers or discretions which the Noteholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution; 

  

	 	(g)	 to approve a proposed new Trustee and to remove a Trustee; 

 

	 	(h)	 to approve the substitution of any entity for the Issuer or any of the Guarantors (or any previous substitute)
as principal debtor or guarantor under this Trust Deed; and 

  

	 	(i)	 to discharge or exonerate the Trustee from any liability in respect of any act or omission for which it may
become responsible under this Trust Deed; 

 provided that the special quorum provisions contained in the proviso to
paragraph 7 and, in the case of an adjourned meeting, in the proviso to paragraph 8 shall apply to any Extraordinary Resolution in relation to any of the matters specified in paragraph 20(b) or (h) or for the purpose of making any modification
to this Trust Deed (each of which shall only be capable of being effected after having been approved by an Extraordinary Resolution) which would have the effect of: 
  

	 	(i)	 changing the date of maturity of the Notes or the dates on which interest is payable in respect of the Notes;
or 

  

	 	(ii)	 reducing or cancelling the amount of principal of, or the rate of interest payable in respect of, the Notes; or

  

	 	(iii)	 changing the currency of payment of the Notes or Coupons; or 

  
 99 

	 	(iv)	 modifying the provisions hereof relating to the quorum required at meetings of the Noteholders or the majority
required to pass (whether at such meeting or by writing) an Extraordinary Resolution; or 

  

	 	(v)	 amending this proviso. 

 

	21.	 Any procedural resolution passed at a meeting of Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with this
Trust Deed and an Extraordinary Resolution duly passed in accordance with this Trust Deed shall be binding on all the Noteholders, whether or not present at the meeting, and on all the Couponholders and each of them shall be bound to give effect to
it accordingly. The passing of such a resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances of such resolution justify the passing of it. The Issuer shall give notice of the passing of an Extraordinary Resolution to Noteholders as soon as
practicable after it has been passed but failure to do so shall not invalidate the resolution. 

  

	22.	 Minutes shall be made of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting and, if purporting to be signed by
the chairman of that meeting or of the next succeeding meeting of Noteholders, shall be conclusive evidence of the matters in them. Until the contrary is proved every meeting for which minutes have been so made and signed shall be deemed to have
been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings transacted at it to have been duly passed and transacted. 

  

	23.	 Subject to the following sentence, a Written Resolution may be contained in one document or in several
documents in like form, each signed by or on behalf of one or more such Noteholders. 

 For so long as the Notes are in the
form of a Global Note held on behalf of one or more of Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or another clearing system, then, in respect of any resolution proposed by the relevant Issuer or the Trustee: 

 

	 	(a)	 where the terms of the resolution proposed by the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee (as the case may be)
have been notified to the Noteholders through the relevant clearing system(s) as provided in sub-paragraphs (i) and/or (ii) below, each of the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee shall be entitled
to rely upon approval of such resolution given by way of electronic consents communicated through the electronic communications systems of the relevant clearing system(s) to the Principal Paying Agent or another specified agent and/or the Trustee in
accordance with their operating rules and procedures by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 75 per cent. in nominal amount of the Notes outstanding (the Required Proportion) (Electronic Consent) by close of business on
the Relevant Date. Any resolution passed in such manner shall be binding on all Noteholders and Couponholders, even if the relevant consent or instruction proves to be defective. None of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee shall be liable or
responsible to anyone for such reliance. 

  

	 	(i)	 When a proposal for a resolution to be passed as an Electronic Consent has been made, at least 10 days’
notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day on which affirmative consents will be counted) shall be given to the Noteholders through the relevant clearing system(s). The notice shall specify, in sufficient detail to
enable Noteholders to give their consents in relation to the proposed resolution, the method by which their consents may be given (including, where applicable, blocking of their accounts in the relevant clearing system(s)) and the time and date (the
Relevant Date) by which they must be received in order for such consents to be validly given, in each case subject to and in accordance with the operating rules and procedures of the relevant clearing system(s). 

  
 100 

	 	(ii)	 If, on the Relevant Date on which the consents in respect of an Electronic Consent are first counted, such
consents do not represent the Required Proportion, the resolution shall, if the party proposing such resolution (the Proposer) so determines, be deemed to be defeated. Such determination shall be notified in writing to the other party
or parties to the Trust Deed. Alternatively, the Proposer may give a further notice to Noteholders that the resolution will be proposed again on such date and for such period as shall be agreed with the Trustee (unless the Trustee is the Proposer).
Such notice must inform Noteholders that insufficient consents were received in relation to the original resolution and the information specified in sub-paragraph (i) above. For the purpose of such
further notice, references to “Relevant Date” shall be construed accordingly. 

 For the avoidance of doubt, an
Electronic Consent may only be used in relation to a resolution proposed by the Issuer , the Guarantor or the Trustee which is not then the subject of a meeting that has been validly convened in accordance with paragraph 3 above, unless that meeting
is or shall be cancelled or dissolved; and 
  

	 	(b)	 where Electronic Consent is not being sought, for the purpose of determining whether a Written Resolution has
been validly passed, the relevant Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on consent or instructions given in writing directly to the relevant Issuer, the Guarantor and/or the Trustee, as the case may be, (a) by
accountholders with entitlements to such Global Note or, (b) where the accountholders hold any such entitlement on behalf of another person, on written consent from or written instruction by the person identified by that accountholder or the
person for whom such entitlement is held. For the purpose of establishing the entitlement to give any such consent or instruction, the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on any certificate or other document issued by, in
the case of (a) above, Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or any other relevant alternative clearing system (the relevant clearing system) and, in the case of (b) above, the relevant clearing system and the person identified
by the relevant clearing system for the purposes of (b) above. Any resolution passed in such manner shall be binding on all Noteholders and Couponholders, even if the relevant consent or instruction proves to be defective. Any such certificate
or other document shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes. Any such certificate or other document may comprise any form of statement or print out of electronic records provided by the relevant clearing system (including Euroclear’s
EUCLID or Clearstream, Luxembourg’s CreationOnline system) in accordance with its usual procedures and in which the accountholder of a particular principal or nominal amount of the Notes is clearly identified together with the amount of such
holding. Neither the relevant Issuer, the Guarantor nor the Trustee shall be liable to any person by reason of having accepted as valid or not having rejected any certificate or other document to such effect purporting to be issued by any such
person and subsequently found to be forged or not authentic. 

 Each Written Resolution and each Electronic Consent shall
for all purposes be as valid and effectual as an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of such Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with the provision contained herein. Each Written Resolution and each Electronic Consent will be
binding on all Noteholders and holders of Coupons and Talons, whether or not they participated in such Written Resolution or Electronic Consent. 
  

	24.	 (a) If and whenever the Issuer shall have issued and have outstanding Notes of more than one Series the
foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall have effect subject to the following modifications: 

  

	 	(i)	 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Notes of one Series only shall be deemed to have
been duly passed if passed at a meeting of the holders of the Notes of that Series; 

  
 101 

	 	(ii)	 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Notes of more than one Series but does not give
rise to a conflict of interests between the holders of Notes of any of the Series so affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a single meeting of the holders of the Notes of all the Series so affected; 

 

	 	(iii)	 a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects the Notes of more than one Series and gives or may
give rise to a conflict of interests between the holders of the Notes of one Series or group of Series so affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed only if passed at separate meetings of the holders of the Notes of each Series or group of
Series so affected; and 

  

	 	(iv)	 to all such meetings as aforesaid all the preceding provisions of this Schedule shall mutatis mutandis
apply as though references therein to Notes and Noteholders were references to the Notes of the Series or group of Series in question and to the holders of such Notes respectively. 

 

	 	(b)	 If the Issuer shall have issued and have outstanding Notes which are not denominated in pounds sterling in the
case of any meeting of holders of Notes of more than one currency the principal amount of such Notes shall (i) for the purposes of paragraph 3 above be the equivalent in pounds sterling at the spot rate of a bank nominated by the Trustee for
the conversion of the relevant currency or currencies into pounds sterling on the seventh dealing day prior to the day on which the requisition in writing is received by the Issuer and (ii) for the purposes of paragraphs 7, 8 and 16 above
(whether in respect of the meeting or any adjourned such meeting or any poll resulting therefrom) be the equivalent at such spot rate on the seventh dealing day prior to the day of such meeting. In such circumstances, on any poll each person present
shall have one vote for each £1 (or such other pounds sterling amount as the Trustee may in its absolute discretion stipulate) in principal amount of the Notes (converted as above) which he holds or represents. 

 

	25.	 Subject to all other provisions of this Trust Deed, the Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders or
the Couponholders, prescribe such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings and attendance and voting at them as the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine including (without limitation) such regulations and requirements as the
Trustee thinks reasonable (a) to satisfy itself that the persons who purport to make any requisition in accordance with this Trust Deed are entitled to do so; (b) as to the form of voting certificates or block voting instructions so as to
satisfy itself that persons who purport to attend or vote at a meeting are entitled to do so; (c) as to the attendance and voting by persons beneficially entitled to interests in the Global Note without the need for them to hold Definitive
Notes; (d) where the Trustee has determined that a resolution may properly be put to a meeting of the holders of the Notes of more than one Series issued in different denominations and/or different currencies, as to the weighting of the votes
attributable to each such series; and (e) so as to satisfy itself that persons who have purported to sign a resolution in writing to constitute an Extraordinary Resolution were in fact Noteholders and holders of different Notes.
