FISCAL AGENCY AGREEMENT, dated as of May 14, 2013, between HARVEST OPERATIONS CORP. (the “Issuer”), a corporation incorporated under the Business Corporation Act (Alberta), as amended, KOREA NATIONAL OIL CORPORATION (the “Guarantor”), a statutory juridical entity established in the Republic of Korea (“Korea”) pursuant to the Korea National Oil Corporation Act of 1978, as amended, CITIBANK, N.A., LONDON BRANCH, a branch office of national banking association, as Fiscal Agent (such bank and its successors as Fiscal Agent being hereinafter called the “Fiscal Agent”) and CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS DEUTSCHLAND AG, a branch office of national banking association, as Registrar (such bank and its successors as Registrar being hereinafter called the “Registrar”). Capitalized terms used herein and not herein defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Notes (as defined below).

1. The Notes.

(a) General. The Issuer proposes to issue 2.125% Notes due May 2018 (the “Notes”) up to an aggregate principal amount of US$630,000,000. The Notes will be the direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated general obligations of the Issuer, and will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves (whether by reason of priority of date of issue or otherwise), and at least equally with all other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated general obligations of the Issuer (subject to certain indebtedness given preference by statute).

(b) Form. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully registered form without coupons and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

The Issuer may provide for the Notes to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more global notes (each a “Global Note”) and, in such case, the depositary for such Global Note or Notes (the “Depositary”) shall be a clearing agency registered under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and under any other applicable statute or regulation. Each such Global Note may bear a legend relating to limitations on the transferability of such Global Note in such form as may be required by the Depositary and such other legends or endorsements as the Depositary may require (the “Global Note Legends”).

The Notes will be issued in denominations of at least US$200,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof.

(c) Execution. The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by a duly authorized officer of the Issuer, whose signature may be affixed manually or by facsimile. Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of a person who was at any time a duly authorized officer of the Issuer may nevertheless be authenticated and delivered and shall bind the Issuer, notwithstanding that any one or more of such persons has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes.

(d) Authentication. Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form indicated on Exhibit A hereto (a “Certificate of Authentication”), executed by the Fiscal Agent by manual signature of one of its authorized officers, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Fiscal Agent upon any Note executed by the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(e) Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes shall have been prepared, the Issuer may execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (in lieu of definitive Notes), temporary Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, substantially of the tenor referred to above. Such temporary Notes shall be subject to the same limitations and conditions and entitled to the same rights and benefits as definitive Notes, except as provided herein or therein. Temporary Notes shall be exchangeable at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent (or at such other office as shall be specified in the text of such temporary Notes) for definitive Notes when the latter shall be ready for delivery; and upon the surrender for exchange at said office of such temporary Notes, the Issuer, at its own expense, shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 hereof, in exchange for such temporary Notes a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Notes in the appropriate form and denomination. Temporary Notes shall be appropriately legended as required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Global Notes. If the Issuer shall establish pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof that the Notes are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Notes, then the Issuer shall execute and the Fiscal Agent shall, in accordance with this Agreement and upon the order of the Issuer, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Notes that shall (i) represent and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal or face amount of the outstanding Notes to be represented by such Global Note or Notes, (ii) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or Notes or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) be issued in accordance with the rules of the Depositary and upon the delivery to the Depositary or the Fiscal Agent, as the case may be, of such certifications by the Issuer as the Depositary or the Fiscal Agent may require, (iv) be delivered by the Fiscal Agent to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instructions and (v) bear the Global Note Legends.

So long as the Depositary is the registered owner of such Global Note or Notes, the Depositary will for all purposes of such Global Note or Notes and this Agreement be considered the sole owner or holder of such Global Note or Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall impair, as between a Depositary and its participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Note.

2. The Guarantee.

(a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the “Guarantee”) to each holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Fiscal Agent the full and immediate payment of the principal of, and any premium and interest on, such Note (and any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether on stated maturity, upon acceleration, by call for redemption or otherwise, as provided in the Note. All payments by the Guarantor hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America. The Guarantor shall make any and all payments required to be made pursuant to the Guarantee immediately upon receipt of notice by the Fiscal Agent. The Guarantor further agrees that the Guarantee constitutes an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, present and continuing guarantee of payment and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the holder to the holder’s rights against any other party (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer), or any other right or remedy available to the holder by contract, applicable law or otherwise. The obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and immediately enforceable when each payment under the Notes is due, and the Guarantor shall not be discharged with respect to any Note except by payment in full of the principal thereof and any premium and interest thereon (and any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof). To the extent permitted by law, such obligations shall not be affected, modified, released or impaired by any state of facts or the occurrence of any event from time to time, including, without limitation, to the extent permitted by law (i) any event or action that would, in the absence of this clause, result in the release or discharge by operation of law of the Guarantor from the performance or observation of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Guarantee, (ii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or a guarantor, (iii) any waiver, compromise, settlement, termination or other release or reduction of the performance by the Issuer of any or all of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, including by an enforceable bankruptcy order, and (iv) any extension of the time for payment of any payment due under the Note or any modification or amendment of any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer set forth in the Note for any reason whatsoever, including by an enforceable bankruptcy order. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Section 2 shall terminate when all of the obligations in respect of the Notes shall have been paid in full.

The Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that each holder of Notes exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Issuer under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein.

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of each holder of Notes against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to such holder by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of the Guarantee; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of, any premium and interest on, all the Notes (and any Additional Amounts payable in respect thereof) shall have been paid in full.

The Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, in respect of any of the amounts guaranteed if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of such amounts is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the holder of Notes upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer or the Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Issuer or the Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

No past, present or future stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator of the Guarantor shall have any personal liability under the Guarantee set forth in this Section 2(a) by reason of its status as such stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator.

The Guarantee set forth in this Section 2(a) shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to a Note until the certificate of authentication on such Note upon which the notation of the Guarantee is endorsed as set forth in Section 2(b) shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Fiscal Agent.

The Guarantee will be unsecured and will rank pari passu with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantor (save for such as may be preferred by mandatory provision of applicable law).

(b) To evidence its Guarantee to the holders specified in Section 2(a) hereof, the Guarantor agrees to execute the notation of the Guarantee in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto to be endorsed on each Note authenticated and delivered by the Fiscal Agent. Each such notation of the Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of the Guarantor, by the Guarantor’s official seal, or by a President or an Executive Vice President or any other duly authorized officer of the Guarantor, whose signature or name and seal may be affixed manually or by facsimile, prior to the authentication of the Note on which it is endorsed, and the delivery of such Note by the Fiscal Agent, after the due authentication thereof by the Fiscal Agent hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee on behalf of the Guarantor. A notation of Guarantee bearing the manual or facsimile signature, or name and seal of a person who was at any time a President or an Executive Vice President or any other duly authorized officer of the Guarantor may nevertheless be delivered and shall bind the Guarantor, notwithstanding that such person has ceased to hold such office at the time of authentication and delivery of the Notes by the Fiscal Agent.

3. Appointment of Agents.

(a) Fiscal Agent. The Issuer and the Guarantor hereby appoint Citibank, N.A., London Branch, at present having an office at c/o Citibank, N.A. Dublin Branch, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, 0 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxx, as Fiscal Agent of the Issuer and the Guarantor in respect of the Notes and the Guarantee upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, and Citibank, N.A., London Branch hereby accepts such appointment. The Fiscal Agent shall have the powers and authority granted to and conferred upon it hereby and in the Notes and the Guarantee and such further powers and authority to act on behalf of the Issuer and the Guarantor as the Issuer and the Guarantor may hereafter grant to or confer upon it with the written concurrence of the Fiscal Agent.

The Issuer and the Guarantor shall notify the Fiscal Agent of the appointment, or termination of appointment, of any such agent.

4. Authenticating Duties.

(a) Original Issue. The Registrar shall, upon delivery to it by the Issuer of the Notes, duly executed on behalf of the Issuer as provided in such Notes, and upon appropriate instructions from or on behalf of the Issuer and for the purpose of original issue, authenticate, by execution of the Certificate of Authentication appearing on each such Note, an aggregate principal amount of such Notes not in excess of US$630,000,000 and shall deliver such Notes to or upon the written order of the Issuer.

(b) Transfers, Exchanges and Replacements.

So long as The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), or its nominee, is the Depositary, no beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note will be able to transfer that interest except in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, in addition to those provided for under this Agreement and, if applicable, those of Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”), or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream” and together with DTC and Euroclear, the “Clearing Systems”).

5. Registration of the Notes.

(a) Note Register. The Registrar, as agent of the Issuer and the Guarantor, shall maintain, at its corporate trust office in London, United Kingdom, a register for registration of the Notes (the “Note Register”). The Issuer, the Guarantor, the Registrar and the Fiscal Agent may deem and treat the registered holder of any Note as the absolute owner thereof (notwithstanding any notice of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purposes of receiving payment thereon or on account thereof and for all other purposes, whether or not such Note shall be overdue.

(b) Transfers, Exchanges and Replacements. The holders of the Notes shall present directly to the Fiscal Agent all requests for (1) registration of transfer of Notes; (2) exchange of the Notes for new Notes in authorized denominations; and (3) replacement of the Notes in the case of mutilation, destruction, loss or theft. The Fiscal Agent shall follow the procedures set forth in paragraphs (i) through (viii) below with respect to such requests.

(i) Exchange of Interests in a Rule 144A Global Note for Interests in a Regulation S Global Note. Upon receipt by the Fiscal Agent of (1) instructions given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures from a holder directing the Fiscal Agent to effect the exchange or transfer of an interest in any Global Note (a “Rule 144A Global Note”) representing Notes resold pursuant to, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which shall bear, unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the Depositary, a legend in the form agreed by the Issuer and the Depositary (the “Rule 144A Legend”), for an interest in a Global Note (a “Regulation S Global Note”) representing Notes sold in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act (such instructions to contain information regarding the participant’s account with the Depositary to be credited with such interest and information regarding the participant’s account with the Depositary to be debited with such interest), (2) in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, the account at Euroclear or Clearstream to be credited with such interest and (3) a duly completed written certification substantially in the form provided for in Exhibit C hereto, or such other form as the Issuer and the Depositary may agree (the “Offshore Sale Certification”), the Fiscal Agent shall instruct the Depositary to reduce the Rule 144A Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the interest to be exchanged or transferred, and concurrently with such reduction, to increase the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of such interest to be so exchanged or transferred, and to approve the credit to the account of the person specified in such instructions of the interest in the Regulation S Global Note.

(ii) Exchange of Interests in Regulation S Global Note for Interests in Rule 144A Global Note.

(1) Until and including the 40th day after the commencement of an offering of Notes (the “Restricted Date”), upon receipt by the Fiscal Agent of (A) instructions from the Depositary directing the Fiscal Agent to effect the exchange or transfer of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note for an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note (such instructions to contain information regarding the participant’s account with the Depositary to be credited with such interest and information regarding the participant’s account with the Depositary to be debited with such interest) and (B) a duly completed written certification substantially in the form provided for in Exhibit D hereto, or such other form as the Issuer and the Depositary may agree (the “Rule 144A Certification”), the Fiscal Agent shall instruct the Depositary to reduce the Regulation S Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of the interest to be exchanged or transferred, and concurrently with such reduction, to increase the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Note by the aggregate principal amount of such interest to be so exchanged or transferred, and to approve the credit to the account of the person specified in such instructions of the interest in the Rule 144A Global Note.

(2) After the Restricted Date, the requirement to deliver the Rule 144A Certification pursuant to Subsection 5(b)(ii)(1)(B) above will no longer apply to transfers or exchanges effected pursuant to this Section 5(b)(ii).

(iii) Exchange of Interests in Global Notes for Individual Definitive Certificates.

(1) In the event that (i) the Depositary notifies the Issuer in writing that it is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for a Global Note or ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and the Issuer does not appoint a qualified successor within 90 days of receiving notice or becoming aware of such ineligibility, (ii) either Euroclear or Clearstream or a successor clearing system is closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holidays, statutory or otherwise) or announce an intention permanently to cease business or does in fact do so, or (iii) the Notes have become immediately due and payable pursuant to Condition 10 of the terms and conditions thereof, then the Issuer will cause individual definitive Notes in registered certificated form (“Certificates”) to be executed and delivered to the Fiscal Agent in sufficient quantities and authenticated by the Fiscal Agent for dispatch to holders of all Notes in accordance with this Agreement.

(2) A beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note will provide the Depositary with:

(i) such information as the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may require to complete, execute and deliver such individual definitive Certificates; and

(ii) in the case of a Regulation S Global Note until and including the Restricted Date or a Rule 144A Global Note, either (A) a fully completed, signed certification to the effect that the exchanging holder is not transferring its Note at the time of such exchange or, (B) in the case of a simultaneous sale of such interest, a duly completed Offshore Sale Certification or Rule 144A Certification, as the circumstances of the sale may require.

(3) Upon receipt of the documents referred to in Subsection (b)(iii)(2)(i) above and, if required, Subsection (b)(iii)(2)(ii) above, the Fiscal Agent shall arrange for the authentication and delivery to the person or persons named in the written order of the Depositary of an individual definitive Certificate representing Notes registered in the name or upon the order of the person or persons named in such order and shall alter the entries in the Note Register in respect of the Global Notes accordingly.

(4) Except for exchanges made in connection with a transfer of Notes described in Subsection (b)(iii)(2)(ii)(B) above and accompanied by a duly completed Offshore Sale Certification, individual definitive Certificates issued in exchange for interests in a Rule 144A Global Note shall bear the Rule 144A Legend.

(iv) Exchange and Transfer of Certificates. Subject to this Section 5 and such reasonable regulations as the Issuer and the Guarantor may prescribe after consultation with the Fiscal Agent, individual definitive Certificates may, at the option of the holder, be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of other individual definitive Certificates of authorized denominations, with the notation of the Guarantee endorsed thereon, at the office of the Fiscal Agent in The City of New York.

Unless and until otherwise determined by the Issuer after consultation with the Fiscal Agent, all Certificates issued in substitution for or on registration of transfer of Notes represented by Certificates bearing the Rule 144A Legend shall also bear the Rule 144A Legend, provided that upon written request of a holder and upon delivery to the Fiscal Agent by the holder of an Offshore Sale Certification, duly executed by the transferor, the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver a Certificate without such legend in exchange for a Certificate with such legend.

Unless and until otherwise determined by the Issuer after consultation with the Fiscal Agent, all Certificates issued in substitution for or on registration of transfer of Notes represented by Certificates that do not bear the Rule 144A Legend, also shall not bear the Rule 144A Legend; provided that the Fiscal Agent shall (A) on presentation to it or its order prior to the Restricted Date of a Rule 144A Certification, duly executed by the transferor, or (B) in any other case, upon request of the holder, authenticate and deliver a Certificate with such legend in exchange for a Certificate without such legend.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Fiscal Agent shall register the transfer of any Note only upon presentation of an executed and duly completed form of transfer substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit E hereto, or such other form as the Issuer and the Depositary may agree, together with any other documents thereby required.

Subject to the foregoing, whenever one or more Certificates shall be surrendered at the office of the Fiscal Agent for exchange for one or more Certificates, together with an executed instrument of assignment and transfer and a written request for the exchange, the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver or cause to be delivered a Certificate or Certificates, with the notation of the Guarantee endorsed thereon, in a like aggregate principal amount and in such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested at the office of the Fiscal Agent or by mail (at the request, risk and expense of the holder) to the address appearing in the Note Register.

(v) Replacements. If any Note shall at any time become mutilated or destroyed or stolen or lost, then, provided that such Note or evidence of the destruction, theft or loss thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and such other documents or proof as may be required) shall be delivered to the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent, a replacement Note, of like tenor and principal amount, with the notation of the Guarantee endorsed thereon by the Guarantor, will be issued by the Issuer and, at its request, authenticated by the Fiscal Agent and delivered by the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office in exchange for the Note and notation of Guarantee so mutilated, or in lieu of the Note and notation of Guarantee so destroyed or stolen or lost; provided, further, that, in the case of destroyed, stolen or lost Notes, (A) neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal Agent shall have notice that such Notes have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and (B) the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Fiscal Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to them that such Notes were destroyed, stolen or lost, and the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Fiscal Agent shall have received an indemnity satisfactory to each of them. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity, and the cost of the preparation and issue of a replacement for any Note and notation of Guarantee mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, shall be paid by the holder of such Note. In case such mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay or cause to be paid such amount about to become due and payable on such Note. Every new Note and the Guarantee thereof issued pursuant to this Subsection (v) in exchange for or in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note, shall constitute an additional original contractual obligation of the Issuer and the Guarantor, respectively, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. To the extent permitted by law, the provisions of this Subsection (v) are exclusive and shall preclude all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Notes.

(vi) Partial Redemptions, Purchases or Repayments. In case a Note is to be redeemed, purchased or repaid in part only, the Fiscal Agent shall, on or after the date fixed for such redemption, purchase or repayment upon surrender of such Note to the Fiscal Agent, register for exchange to the holder thereof a new Note having a principal amount equal to the portion thereof remaining outstanding, the Guarantor shall execute a notation of Guarantee with respect thereto, and the Fiscal Agent shall deliver the new Note to such holder.

(vii) Delivery. All Notes issued pursuant to Subsections (i) through (vi) of this Section 5(b) shall be delivered to the holder at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent or (at the risk of the holder) sent by mail to such address as may be specified by the holder in the request for transfer, exchange or replacement. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge in connection with any such transfer, exchange or replacement, but no other charge shall be paid in connection with any such registration of transfer, exchange or replacement (except for the expenses referenced in Subsection (v) of this Section 5(b) and the expenses of delivery other than by regular mail). All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits (including the benefits of the Guarantee), as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer, exchange or replacement. Any new Note delivered pursuant to this Section 5 shall be so dated that neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from such transfer, exchange or replacement.

(viii) Global Notes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5, a Global Note may not be transferred, except as a whole, to the Depositary, a nominee of the Depositary, a successor Depositary or a nominee of a successor Depositary.

Unless (A) a Global Note is presented by an authorized representative of the Depositary to the Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and (B) any Note issued is registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary and any payment is made to such Depositary or nominee, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, any transfer, pledge or other use of any Global Note for value or otherwise shall be wrongful since the registered owner of such Global Note, the nominee of the Depositary, has an interest in such Global Note.

(c) Negotiation of Notes. Notes presented or surrendered to the Fiscal Agent for transfer, exchange or replacement shall be duly endorsed by, or accompanied by written instruments of transfer in a form approved by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the registered owner thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

(d) Transfer or Exchange Prior to Redemption. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Notes after the Notes have been called for redemption.

(e) Information to the Issuer and the Guarantor. At such times as the Issuer or the Guarantor shall reasonably request, the Fiscal Agent shall provide the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, with a list of the names and addresses of the registered holders of the Notes.

(f) Cancellation and Retirement. Upon surrender to the Fiscal Agent of any Note pursuant to Subsection (b) of this Section 5, the Fiscal Agent shall cancel such Note, and all canceled Notes shall be retired by the Fiscal Agent. No Note shall be deemed to be retired hereunder until retired by the Fiscal Agent; provided that Notes in lieu of which, or in substitution for which, other Notes shall have been authenticated pursuant to the terms of Section 5(b)(iv) hereof but which shall not have been delivered to the Fiscal Agent pursuant to said Section 5(b)(iv) shall not be deemed to be outstanding (unless proof satisfactory to the Fiscal Agent is made that any such Note is held by a person in whose hands such Note constitutes a valid obligation of the Issuer). All Notes canceled and retired by the Fiscal Agent pursuant to this Section 5(f) or Section 6(d) shall be destroyed from time to time in a manner consistent with the Fiscal Agent’s securities destruction policy. The Fiscal Agent shall certify the cancellation and retirement of any Notes to the Issuer.

(g) Retirement of Notes Paid or Surrendered by the Issuer. Upon delivery to the Fiscal Agent of any Note canceled pursuant to Section 6(d) hereof, the Fiscal Agent shall retire such Note in accordance with Section 5(f) hereof, and no Note shall be issued in replacement thereof. The acquisition of any Notes by the Issuer shall not be deemed to be a satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same shall have been delivered by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent for cancellation in accordance with Section 6(d) hereof and retired by the Fiscal Agent hereunder. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor will not sell, and will cause its “affiliates” (as defined in paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) not to sell, any Note as to which it or they hold or acquire any beneficial interest; provided that affiliates of the Issuer or the Guarantor may sell Notes to the Issuer or the Guarantor or to other such affiliates.

6. Duties of Fiscal Agent.

(a) Principal and Interest. Payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be made by the Fiscal Agent on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Notes), the stated maturity date for the Notes and on any date fixed for redemption thereof, subject in each case to Condition 2(e) of the Notes (collectively, as modified with respect to any place of payment by such Condition 2(e), the “Payment Dates”), in the manner set forth in the Notes, out of monies deposited for such payments by the Issuer or the Guarantor with the Fiscal Agent as provided in Section 6(b) hereof;

(b) Payments. The Issuer or the Guarantor shall deposit funds in U.S. Dollars in the following amounts into the corporate trust account of the Fiscal Agent in London, United Kingdom, in such form as will be available in each case by 11:00 A.M., London time (or in the case of payment of the principal amount of the Notes at stated maturity, by 12:00 noon, London time) on the day that is a business day in Xxx Xxxx xx Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx and Seoul (“Business Day”) prior to the applicable Payment Date:

(i) Amounts sufficient to pay the interest becoming due on the Notes on each related Interest Payment Date. The Fiscal Agent shall apply such amounts to the payment of such interest in accordance with the terms of the Notes. Interest payable on the Notes on an Interest Payment Date shall (except as provided in Section 6(c) hereof) be paid to each holder of record of the Notes at the close of business on the record date for such Interest Payment Date in U.S. Dollars by wire transfer in same day funds to the registered account of each holder or if it does not have a registered account, by a US dollar check drawn on a bank that processes payments in US Dollars and mailed to the holder’s registered address. Except as otherwise set forth in the Notes, the record date for each Interest Payment Date shall be the fifteenth day prior to such Interest Payment Date; and

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

	(a)	The US$630,000,000 2.125% Guaranteed Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”) are being issued by the Issuer pursuant to a Fiscal Agency Agreement dated as of May 14, 2013 (as amended from time to time, the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”) between the Issuer, the Guarantor, Citibank N.A., London Branch, as Fiscal Agent (such bank and its successors as Fiscal Agent being hereinafter called the “Fiscal Agent”) and Citigroup Global Markets Deutschland AG, as Registrar (such bank and its successors as Registrar being hereinafter called the “Registrar”), the terms of which are incorporated by reference in the Notes. Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement are on file and available for inspection at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent, and reference thereto is made for a description of the rights and limitations of rights thereunder of the Holders of the Notes and the duties and immunities of the Fiscal Agent and the Registrar. In acting under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the agents appointed by the Issuer and the Guarantor thereunder are acting solely as agents for the Issuer and the Guarantor and do not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with the Holder of the Notes except as specifically described below or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement with respect to the Fiscal Agent and the Registrar. The Holders of Notes will be entitled to the benefits of, and be bound by and deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Fiscal Agency Agreement. As used herein, the term “Holder” means each person in whose name a Note is registered in the Note Register.

	(b)	The Notes are issuable only as fully registered Notes without coupons in denominations of US$200,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes constitute senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer and shall at all times rank pari passu and without any preference or priority among themselves and at least equally with all other present and future senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer, except as may be preferred by mandatory provisions of applicable law.

	(c)	The Guarantor will unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee (the “Guarantee”) to each Holder of a Note the full and immediate payment of the principal of, and premium (if any) and interest on, such Note (including any Additional Amounts (as defined below) payable in respect thereof) when and as the same shall become due and payable as provided in the Note, whether on the stated maturity, upon acceleration, by call for redemption or otherwise. The Guarantee constitutes unsecured senior obligations of the Guarantor and shall rank equally with its existing and future unsecured senior obligations, save for such as may be preferred by mandatory provisions of applicable law.

	(d)	The Issuer and the Guarantor covenant that until the earlier to occur of the date on which all of the Notes shall have been delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancellation and the date on which all of the Notes have become due and payable and monies sufficient to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on, all of the Notes shall have been made available for payment and either paid or returned to the Issuer as provided herein, the Issuer and the Guarantor will at all times maintain a Fiscal Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company having a combined capital and surplus of at least US$50,000,000, legally qualified to act as Fiscal Agent and having an established place of business in London, United Kingdom or The City of New York). Subject to the foregoing, the Issuer and the Guarantor reserve the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Fiscal Agent and such additional agents as the Issuer and the Guarantor may determine.

A-6

2.	Payment

	(a)	Payments of principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Notes will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America (the “United States”) as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in the United States.

	(b)	Payment of the principal of the Notes shall be made, upon presentation and surrender hereof, by check drawn on the account of the Fiscal Agent, at the option of the person to whom interest is payable as provided below, either (i) at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent or (ii) subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto and to the right of the Issuer and the Guarantor to terminate the appointment of any such paying agency, at such other paying agencies as the Issuer and the Guarantor may designate.

	(c)	Payments of interest on the Notes shall be made by a wire transfer in same day funds to the registered account of each Holder or if it does not have a registered account, by check drawn on the account of the Fiscal Agent mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Note Register. The interest so payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth day preceding such Interest Payment Date (each, a “Record Date”), whether or not a Business Day, notwithstanding the cancellation, transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to the Record Date and on or prior to such Interest Payment Date, and no interest otherwise so payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid on such Note if the name of its Holder was entered as such on the Note Register after the close of business on the Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date, except if and to the extent that there shall be a default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, in which case such defaulted interest shall (unless paid together with principal of such Note in full other than on an Interest Payment Date) be paid to the person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be not less than five Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor to the Holders of Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date. If interest is paid together with principal in full on a date that is not an Interest Payment Date, such interest shall be paid upon presentation and surrender of the Note to the Fiscal Agent or to a paying agent.

A-7

	(d)	In any case where the date for the payment of any principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Note is not a day on which banking institutions at any place of payment are open for business (a “Business Day”), then payment of such principal or interest need not be made on such date at such place of payment but may be made on the next succeeding day at such place of payment which is a Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment of principal or interest, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

	(e)	Any monies paid by the Issuer or the Guarantor to the Fiscal Agent for the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Notes and remaining unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall then be repaid to the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, and upon such repayment, all liability of the Fiscal Agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease and the Holder of any Note representing a claim therefor shall thereafter look only to the Issuer and the Guarantor for payment thereof. With respect to such unclaimed amount, no interest shall accrue during the unclaimed period.

3.	Interest

The Notes will bear interest from and including the Issue Date up to but excluding May 14, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”) at the rate of 2.125% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 14 and November 14of each year, beginning November 14, 2013. Interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Under these Conditions, for purposes of disclosure only and without any effect with respect to the calculation of interest or otherwise, under the Interest Act (Canada) the yearly rate of interest to which interest calculated under a Note for any period in a calendar year (the “Calculation Period”) is equivalent, is the rate payable under such Note in respect of the Calculation Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in such calendar year and the denominator of which is the actual number of days in the Calculation Period.

4.	Optional Redemption

(a)

Optional Redemption Due to Changes in Tax Treatment

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer, in whole, but not in part, upon not less than 30 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued but unpaid interest (if any) to the date fixed for redemption if (i) the Issuer or the Guarantor provides to the Fiscal Agent prior to the giving of such notice an opinion of counsel to the effect that as a result of any change in, expiration of or amendment to the laws of Canada or the Republic of Korea (“Korea”) (or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder or any change in the official interpretation or official application of such laws, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application or interpretation of, or any execution of or amendment to, any treaty or treaties affecting taxation to which Canada or Korea (or such political subdivision or taxing authority) is a party, which change, amendment, expiration or treaty becomes effective on or after May 7, 2013, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, is or would be obligated on the next succeeding due date for a payment with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee pursuant to Condition 6 below, and (ii) this obligation cannot be avoided by measures reasonably available to the Issuer or the Guarantor, provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days before the earliest date on which the Issuer or the Guarantor would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Notes then due. Prior to any redemption of the Notes pursuant to this Condition 4(a), the Issuer or the Guarantor shall deliver to the Fiscal Agent an officer’s certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and hereof.

A-8

(b)

Optional Redemption Due to Change of Control

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below), each Holder of the Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to redeem all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption (the “Change of Control Redemption Price”). Within 30 days following a Change of Control, the Issuer shall cause the Fiscal Agent to deliver a notice to each Holder stating that (i) a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Issuer to redeem such Holder’s Notes at the Change of Control Redemption Price; (ii) the redemption date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered); and (iii) the procedures determined by the Issuer, consistent with the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes redeemed.

5.	Purchase

The Issuer or the Guarantor may at any time purchase Notes by tender (available to all Holders alike) or in the open market at any price. If the Issuer or the Guarantor acquires any Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as or be deemed for any purpose to be a satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until such Notes are delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancellation and are cancelled and retired by the Fiscal Agent. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor shall not sell, and will cause its “Affiliates” (as defined in paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) not to sell, any Note as to which it or they hold or acquire any beneficial interest; provided that Affiliates of the Issuer or the Guarantor may sell Notes to the Issuer or the Guarantor or to other such Affiliates.

In the event that less than 10% of the initial principal amount of the Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer or the Guarantor may, prior to the Maturity Date, upon not less than 30 days’ notice to the Holders (which notice will be irrevocable), redeem, in whole but not in part, the remaining outstanding Notes at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of their principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest (if any) to the date of redemption.

If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes is imposed, collected, withheld, assessed or levied by or on behalf of Korea or Canada, or within any political subdivision thereof or by any authority therein having power to tax, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, will withhold such Taxes and pay them to the relevant government authority, and the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, will pay such additional amounts in respect of Taxes as will result (i) with respect to the Issuer, in the payment to Holders of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Notes that would otherwise have been receivable by them in respect of payments on such Notes in the absence of such deduction or withholding or (ii) with respect to the Guarantor, the amounts guaranteed under the Guarantee that would otherwise have been receivable by the Holders in respect of payments under the Guarantee in the absence of such deduction or withholding (such additional amounts due by the Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, the “Additional Amounts”), except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Note:

A-9

	(a)	to or on behalf of a Holder or the beneficial owner of the Note who is subject to such Taxes, as applicable, in respect of such Note by reason of such Holder or the beneficial owner of the Note being connected with Korea or Canada, as applicable, other than merely by holding or beneficially owning such Note or by the receipt of the principal of, or any premium (if any) or interest on, such Note, or the enforcement of a Note or Guarantee or being or having been a beneficiary of the Guarantee; or

	(b)	to or on behalf of a Holder or the beneficial owner of the Note to the extent that such Holder or beneficial owner of the Note would not be liable for or subject to such deduction or withholding by making a declaration of non- residence or other similar claim for exemption or deduction to the relevant tax authorities if such Holder or beneficial owner of the Note is eligible to make such declaration or other claim and, after having been requested to make such a declaration or claim, such Holder or beneficial owner of the Note fails to do so; or

	(c)	in circumstances where the surrender of a Note is required under these Conditions or the Fiscal Agency Agreement, if a Note is surrendered more than 30 days after the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner of the Note would have been entitled to such Additional Amount on presenting such Note for payment on the last day of such 30 day period; or

	(d)	to or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner of the Note who is not dealing at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) to the Issuer at the time of making such payment; or

	(e)	in the case of any combination of items (a) through (d) above.

For this purpose the “Relevant Date” in relation to any Note means (a) the due date for payment in respect thereof which is a Business Day or (b) if the full amount of the monies payable on such due date has not been received by the Fiscal Agent or the principal paying agent on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given to the Holders or beneficial owners of the Note that such monies have been so received.

	(y)	a Note or Guarantee is presented for payment by or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid the withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Note or Guarantee to another paying agent in a member state of the European Union.

Additionally, the obligation of the Issuer or the Guarantor to pay such Additional Amounts shall not apply with respect to (i) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property tax or any similar taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges or (ii) any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges that are payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments on the Notes.

The Issuer or the Guarantor, as applicable, will provide the Fiscal Agent with documentation evidencing the payment of such Taxes, if any. Copies of such documentation will be made available to any Holder or any paying agent, as applicable, upon request therefor.

References in these Conditions to the principal of, or any premium (if any) or interest on, the Notes shall be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amounts which may be payable in respect thereof under this Condition 6.

7.	Transfer, Exchange and Replacement

	(a)	The transfer of the Notes is registrable (upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Fiscal Agency Agreement and subject to the reasonable requirements of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Registrar and the Fiscal Agent) on the Note Register upon surrender of such Notes for registration at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form approved by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Registrar and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

Any new Note delivered pursuant to this Condition 7 shall be dated so that neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from such transfer or exchange.

	(f)	If any Note shall at any time become mutilated or destroyed or stolen or lost, then provided that such Note, or evidence of the destruction, theft or loss thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and such other documents or proof as may be required in the premises) shall be delivered to the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent, a replacement Note of the same tenor and principal amount, with the notation of the Guarantee endorsed thereon by the Guarantor, will be issued by the Issuer and, at its request, authenticated by the Registrar and delivered by the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office, in exchange for the Note and notation of Guarantee so mutilated, or in lieu of the Note and notation of Guarantee so destroyed or stolen or lost; provided, further, that, in the case of destroyed, stolen or lost Notes, (i) neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal Agent shall have notice that such Notes have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and (ii) the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Fiscal Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to them that such Notes were destroyed, stolen or lost, and the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Fiscal Agent shall have received an indemnity satisfactory to each of them.

In case such mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay or cause to be paid such Note. Every new Note, and the Guarantee thereof, issued pursuant to this Paragraph (f) in exchange for or in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note, shall constitute an additional original contractual obligation of the Issuer or Guarantor, respectively, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. Any new Note delivered pursuant to this Paragraph (f) shall be so dated that neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from such replacement.

	(i)	All Notes (with the notation of the Guarantee endorsed thereon) issued as a result of any transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes shall be delivered to the Holder at the corporate trust office of the Registrar or (at the risk of the Holder) sent by mail to such address as is specified by the Holder in the request for transfer, exchange or replacement.
