Redemption for Tax Reasons The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at any time at their Early Redemption Amount, together, if appropriate, with accrued but unpaid interest to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption under this Condition 6(b), if the Issuer shall determine that as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer is incorporated or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the Issue Date of the Notes, the Issuer would be required to pay Additional Amounts, as provided in Condition 7, on the occasion of the next payment due in respect of the Notes. Notice of intention to redeem Notes will be given at least once in accordance with Condition 16 not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption under this Condition 6(b), provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the effective date of such change or amendment and that at the time notice of such redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. From and after any redemption date, if moneys for redemption of Notes shall have been made available for redemption on such redemption date, such Notes shall cease to bear interest, if applicable, and the only right of the holders of such Notes and any Coupons appertaining thereto shall be to receive payment of the Early Redemption Amount and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to (but excluding) such redemption date.
