      to which the Authorization relates.

Securities may be issuable pursuant to warrants (if so provided in such Securities) and the Fiscal Agent may act as warrant agent or in any similar capacity
      in connection therewith.

(c)  Forms of Securities.  The Securities of a Series to be issued in registered form without coupons (“registered Securities”) will be issuable in
      substantially the form of Exhibit A or, in the case of a U.S. Global Security (as defined below), in substantially the form of Exhibit F or such other form as shall be established pursuant to the Authorization and in the denominations specified in
      the Authorization.  The Securities of a Series, if any, to be issued in bearer form, with or without interest coupons attached (“bearer Securities”), will be issuable in substantially the form of Exhibit B or, in the case of a European Global
      Security (as defined below), in substantially the form of Exhibit G or such other form as shall be established pursuant to the Authorization and in the denominations specified in the Authorization.  In this Agreement, (i) Securities that are not in
      temporary form are referred to as “definitive Securities” and Securities that are in temporary form are referred to as “temporary Securities”, (ii) registered Securities that are not in temporary form are referred to as “definitive registered
      Securities” (unless such Securities are in global form, in which case they are referred to as “definitive registered global Securities”) and registered Securities that are in temporary form are referred to as “temporary registered Securities” (unless
      such Securities are in global form, in which case they are referred to as “temporary registered global Securities”) and (iii) bearer Securities that are not in temporary form are referred to as “definitive bearer Securities” (unless such Securities
      are in global form, in which case they are referred to as “definitive bearer global Securities”) and bearer Securities that are in temporary form are referred to as “temporary bearer Securities” (unless such Securities are in global form, in which
      case they are referred to as “temporary bearer global Securities”).

All Securities shall be executed manually or in facsimile on behalf of the Issuer by such official or officials of the Issuer as shall have been authorized
      by the Authorization (the “Authorized Officers”), notwithstanding that such official or officials, or any of them, shall have ceased, for any reason, to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold
      such offices at the date of any such Security.  The Securities of a Series may also have such additional provisions, omissions, variations or substitutions as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or of the Authorization, and may
      have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements not referred to in the Authorization placed thereon as may be required to comply with any law or with any rules made pursuant thereto or with the rules of
      any securities exchange or governmental agency or as may be required by any depositary or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the Authorized Officers executing such Securities, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such
      Securities.  All Securities of a particular Series shall be otherwise substantially identical except as to denomination and as provided herein or in the Authorization.

(d)  Temporary Securities.  Until definitive Securities of a Series are prepared, the Issuer may (and, if the Authorization so requires, the Issuer
      shall) execute, and there shall be authenticated and delivered in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 (in lieu of definitive Securities of such Series), temporary Securities of such Series.  Such temporary Securities may be in global form; provided,
      however, that any temporary Security in global form shall be in registered form unless delivered in compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 1(e).  Such temporary Securities of a Series shall be subject to the same limitations and
      conditions and entitled to the same rights and benefits as definitive Securities of such Series, except as provided herein or in the Authorization thereof.  Unless otherwise provided herein or therein, temporary Securities of a Series shall be
      exchangeable for definitive Securities of such Series when such definitive Securities are available for delivery; and upon the surrender for exchange of temporary Securities of a Series that are so exchangeable, the Issuer shall execute and there
      shall be authenticated and delivered, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5 and 6 and in exchange for such temporary Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities (provided that such Securities have not been
      previously redeemed) of such Series.  All temporary Securities shall be identified as such and shall describe the right of the holder thereof to effect an exchange for definitive Securities and the manner in which such an exchange may be effected.

(e) (i)  Originally Issued Bearer Securities.  This Section 1(e)(i) shall apply only to definitive bearer Securities, temporary bearer Securities
      and definitive bearer global Securities that are originally issued at the time of sale thereof.

The Issuer shall not deliver for original issuance at the time of sale thereof any definitive bearer Security, temporary bearer Security or definitive
      bearer global Security of any Series to the person entitled to physical delivery thereof (other than Euroclear Bank SA/NV (“EUROCLEAR”), Clearstream Banking S.A. (“CLEARSTREAM”) or such other clearing system located outside the United States and its
      possessions as the Issuer may select (“Clearing System”)) except upon delivery by such person to the Issuer of a certificate in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D and, where the person entitled to physical delivery of such Securities is
      EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, only upon delivery to the Issuer of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit E.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Securities of a Series, no bearer Security may be
      mailed to or otherwise delivered to any location within the United States or its possessions in connection with its sale during the restricted period in respect of such Security (as defined in United States Treasury Regulations
      Section 1.163‑5(c)(2)(i)(D)(7)).

(ii)  Temporary Bearer Global Securities.  This Section 1(e)(ii) shall apply only to temporary bearer global Securities delivered to a common
      depositary or its nominee (the “Common Depositary”) for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, except as otherwise may be provided in the Authorization.

If the Authorization relating to the Securities of a Series so provides, bearer Securities of such Series shall be issued initially in the form of a
      temporary bearer global Security in substantially the form of Exhibit C or such other form as shall be established pursuant to the Authorization.  The temporary bearer global Security of a Series shall be exchangeable, as provided below, for
      definitive bearer or definitive registered Securities of such Series or, if the Authorization so provides, for one or more definitive bearer global Securities or definitive registered global Securities of such Series, or any combination thereof
      specified in or contemplated by the Authorization.  The term “Securities of a Series” as used herein includes any temporary bearer global Security of such Series.

Any such temporary bearer global Security of a Series shall be executed by the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent shall, upon
      the order of the Issuer, authenticate such temporary bearer global Security and deliver such temporary bearer global Security outside the United States and its possessions to the Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing
      System for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of Securities of such Series on the records of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System (or to such other accounts as they may direct).

Unless otherwise specified in the Authorization, the interest of a beneficial owner of Securities of a Series in the temporary bearer global Security of
      such Series shall be exchanged for definitive bearer Securities or definitive registered Securities of such Series or any combination thereof when the account holder instructs EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, to request
      such exchange on his behalf and delivers to EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, a certificate in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D, copies of which certificates shall be provided to EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or
      Clearing System and to the Fiscal Agent.  If an Exchange Date is specified in the Authorization relating to the Securities of a Series to be applicable to the Securities of such Series, no definitive Securities of such Series shall be exchanged
      pursuant to this Section 1(e)(ii) prior to such Exchange Date.  Any exchange pursuant to this Section 1(e)(ii) shall be made free of charge to the beneficial owners of the temporary bearer global Security, except that a person receiving definitive
      Securities must bear the cost payable in advance to the Fiscal Agent of insurance, postage, transportation and the like in the event that such person does not take delivery of such definitive Securities in person at the offices of EUROCLEAR,
      CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Securities of a Series, no bearer Security of such Series may be mailed to or otherwise delivered in connection with their sale during the restricted period in
      respect of such Security (as defined in United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.163‑5(c)(2)(i)(D)(7)) to a location within the United States and its possessions.

On the applicable Exchange Date, or if no Exchange Date is specified in the Authorization relating to the Securities of a Series to be applicable to
      Securities of such Series, on the date of original issuance of the Securities of such Series, the temporary bearer global Security of such Series shall be surrendered by the Common Depositary outside the United States and its possessions, to the
      Fiscal Agent, as the Issuer’s agent, for purposes of the exchange of Securities described below.  In the event that the temporary bearer global Security of such Series is to be exchanged for one or more definitive bearer global Securities and/or
      definitive registered global Securities, following such surrender the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver outside the United States and its possessions such definitive Securities to the Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR,
      CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System for credit to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of Securities of such Series on the records of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System (or to such other accounts as they may direct), but only upon
      delivery by EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, to the Fiscal Agent of a certificate or certificates substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit E.  In the event that the temporary bearer global Security of a Series is
      to be exchanged for one or more definitive bearer Securities and/or definitive registered Securities, following such surrender, upon the request of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, acting on behalf of beneficial owners of such Securities,
      the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver outside the United States and its possessions to EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, for the account of such owners, definitive bearer Securities or definitive registered
      Securities, or any combination thereof, as shall be specified by such owners, in exchange for the aggregate principal amount of the temporary bearer global Security of such Series beneficially owned by such owners, but only upon delivery by
      EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, to the Fiscal Agent of a certificate or certificates substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit E.

Upon any exchange of a portion of the temporary bearer global Security of a Series for definitive Securities of such Series, the temporary bearer global
      Security of such Series shall be endorsed to reflect the reduction of the principal amount evidenced thereby, whereupon its remaining principal amount shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged.  Until so exchanged in full, the
      temporary bearer global Security of a Series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Securities of such Series authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that none of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM any
      other Clearing System nor the beneficial owners of the temporary bearer global Security of such Series shall be entitled to receive payment of interest thereon except as provided in the next sentence.  Beneficial owners of the temporary bearer global
      Security of such Series, and EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System on their behalf, shall be entitled to receive payment of interest prior to any such exchange for definitive Securities following delivery by the beneficial owners to EUROCLEAR,
      CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, as the case may be, of a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit D and delivery by EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System to the Fiscal Agent of a certificate substantially in the form set forth
      in Exhibit E.

(f) (i)  U.S. Book-Entry Provisions.  This Section 1(f)(i) shall apply only to definitive registered global Securities of a Series deposited with or
      on behalf of a depositary located in the United States (a “U.S. Depositary”), except as may otherwise be provided in the Authorization.

If the Issuer shall establish in the Authorization that the registered Securities of a Series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or
      more definitive registered global Securities deposited with or on behalf of a U.S. Depositary, then the Issuer shall execute and the Fiscal Agent shall, in accordance with this Section 1(f)(i) and the Authorization with respect to such Series,
      authenticate and deliver one or more definitive registered global Securities that (A) shall be registered in the name of the U.S. Depositary for such global Security or Securities or the nominee of such U.S. Depositary, (B) shall be delivered by the
      Fiscal Agent to such U.S. Depositary or pursuant to such U.S. Depositary’s instruction and (C) except as otherwise provided in the Authorization, shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect:  “Unless and until it is exchanged in whole
      or in part for the individual Securities represented hereby, this definitive registered global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the U.S. Depositary to a nominee of the U.S. Depositary or by a nominee of the U.S. Depositary to the
      U.S. Depositary or another nominee of the U.S. Depositary or by the U.S. Depositary or any such nominee to a successor U.S. Depositary or a nominee of such successor U.S. Depositary”, and to such other effect as may be required by the applicable U.S.
      Depositary.

Members of, or participants in, a U.S. Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any global Security held on
      their behalf by a U.S. Depositary, and such U.S. Depositary may be treated by the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent as the owner of such definitive registered global Security for all purposes whatsoever. 
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent or any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent from giving effect to any written certificate, proxy or other authorization furnished by a U.S. Depositary or
      impair, as between a U.S. Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Security.  None of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent or any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent
      will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a definitive registered global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records
      relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

(ii)  Offshore Book-Entry Provisions.  This Section 1(f)(ii) shall apply only to definitive bearer global Securities and definitive registered global
      Securities of a Series delivered to the Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, except as otherwise may be provided in the Authorization.

The provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the EUROCLEAR System” and the “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of EUROCLEAR”, the “Management Regulations”
      and “Instructions to Participants” of CLEARSTREAM, and such other procedures and conditions applicable to any Clearing System, respectively, shall be applicable to definitive bearer global Securities and definitive registered global Securities of a
      Series delivered to the Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System.  Account holders or participants in EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System shall have no rights under this Agreement with respect to any such
      definitive bearer global Securities or definitive registered global Securities delivered to the Common Depositary or, in the case of registered Securities, registered in the name of the nominee of the Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR,
      CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, and the Common Depositary or such nominee may be treated by the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent as the owner of any such definitive bearer global Securities or definitive
      registered global Securities for all purposes whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent or any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent from giving effect to any written certificate, proxy or
      other authorization furnished by the Common Depositary or impair, as between the Common Depositary and its account holders or participants, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Security.

(iii)  Global Book-Entry Provisions.  This Section 1(f)(iii) shall apply, in addition to Section 1(f)(i) and 1(f)(ii), where applicable, to a Series
      in which the Securities will be issued in the form of (i) a fully registered global Security which will be deposited with or on behalf of a U.S. Depositary (the “U.S. Global Security”), substantially in the form of Exhibit F, and (ii) a definitive
      bearer global Security which will be deposited with a Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System (the “European Global Security”, and together with the U.S. Global Security, the “Global Securities”), substantially
      in the form of Exhibit G.

Both the U.S. Global Security and the European Global Security will be deposited with one and the same custodian and common depositary that serves at the
      same time as a U.S. Depositary and as a Common Depositary for the benefit of EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM and Clearing System (the “Note Depositary”).  The Global Securities may not be transferred without the prior written consent of the Issuer and except
      in combination and as a whole by the Note Depositary to another custodian and common depositary for such Global Securities or to a successor of such custodian and common depositary; provided that such subsequent custodian and common
      depositary or successor, as the case may be, expressly agrees to abide by such restrictions on transfer.

(g)  Legends.  Securities of a Series shall be stamped or otherwise be imprinted with such legends, if any, as are provided in the Authorization or
      pursuant to Section 1(c) or 1(f).  Any legends so provided may be removed as provided in the Authorization or pursuant to Section 1(c) or 1(f).

2.  Fiscal Agent; Other Agents.  The Issuer hereby appoints Citibank, acting through its office at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx,
      Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, as fiscal agent of the Issuer in respect of the Securities upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, and Citibank hereby accepts such appointment.  Citibank and any successor or successors as such
      fiscal agent qualified and appointed in accordance with Section 9, are herein called the “Fiscal Agent”.  The Fiscal Agent shall have the powers and authority granted to and conferred upon it in the Securities and hereby and such further powers and
      authority to act on behalf of the Issuer as may be mutually agreed upon by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent.  All the terms and provisions with respect to such powers and authority contained in the Securities are subject to and governed by the terms
      and provisions hereof.

The Issuer may, at its discretion, appoint one or more agents (a “Paying Agent” or “Paying Agents”) for the payment (subject to applicable laws and
      regulations) of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on the Securities of a Series and one or more agents (a “Transfer Agent” or “Transfer Agents” and together with the Paying Agents and the Fiscal Agent, the “Agents”) for the
      transfer and exchange of Securities of a Series at such place or places as the Issuer may determine; provided, however, that so long as any Securities of such Series are listed on any stock exchange, the Issuer shall maintain a Paying
      Agent in such city as such stock exchange may so require; and provided further that, in the event that Securities are issued in registered form, the Issuer shall at all times maintain a Paying Agent and Transfer Agent in The City of
      New York, or, if set forth in the Authorization relating to such Securities, in London, and in such other city as such stock exchange may require (which Paying Agent and Transfer Agent may be, and initially shall be, the Fiscal Agent).  The Issuer
      shall promptly notify the Fiscal Agent of the name and address of each additional Paying Agent and Transfer Agent appointed by it and of the country or countries in which a Paying Agent or Transfer Agent may act in that capacity, and will notify the
      Fiscal Agent of the resignation or termination of any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9(c), the Issuer may vary or terminate the appointment of any such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent at any time and from time to
      time upon giving not less than ten calendar days’ notice to such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, as the case may be, and to the Fiscal Agent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer issues bearer Securities of a Series, to the extent provided
      in the Securities of such Series the Issuer shall maintain under appointment a Paying Agent or Paying Agents with respect to such bearer Securities outside the United States of America, its territories, its possessions and other areas subject to its
      jurisdiction (the “United States”) for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on such bearer Securities.

In respect of the Securities of a Series, the Issuer shall cause notice of any resignation, termination or appointment of any Paying Agent or Transfer Agent
      or of the Fiscal Agent, and of any change in the office through which any such Agent will act, to be given as provided in the Securities of such Series.

3.  Authentication.  The Fiscal Agent is authorized, upon receipt of Securities of a Series duly executed on behalf of the Issuer for the purposes
      of the original issuance of Securities of such Series, (i) to authenticate such Securities in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of the aggregate principal amount specified in the Securities of such Series in accordance with the
      Authorization and to deliver such Securities in accordance with the written order or orders of the Issuer signed on its behalf by any person authorized by or pursuant to the Authorization and (ii) thereafter to authenticate and deliver Securities of
      such Series in accordance with the provisions therein or as herein set forth.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1(b) and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a Series are not to be originally issued at one time, it
      shall not be necessary to deliver the Authorization otherwise required pursuant to Section 1(b) or the order or orders otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such Series
      if such documents are delivered at or prior to the time of authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such Series to be issued.

The Fiscal Agent may, with the consent of the Issuer, appoint by an instrument or instruments in writing one or more agents (which may include, and
      initially shall consist solely of, itself) for the authentication of Securities of a Series and, with such consent, vary or terminate any such appointment upon written notice and approve any change in the office through which any authenticating agent
      acts.  The Issuer, by written notice to the Fiscal Agent and the authenticating agent whose appointment is to be terminated, may also terminate any such appointment at any time.  The Fiscal Agent hereby agrees to obtain a written acceptance (in form
      and substance satisfactory to the Issuer) of such appointments from each such authenticating agent.  In its acceptance of such appointment, each such authenticating agent shall agree to act as an authenticating agent pursuant to the terms and
      conditions of this Agreement.

4.  Payment and Cancelation.  (a)  Payment.  Subject to the following provisions, the Issuer shall provide to the Fiscal Agent in funds
      available on or prior to each date by not later than 10:00 a.m. (local time in the principal financial center of the relevant coin or currency) on which a payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any interest on the Securities of a Series
      shall become due, as set forth in the Securities of such Series, such amount, in such coin or currency, as is necessary to make such payment, and the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent from funds so provided to it to make or cause
      to be made payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest, as the case may be, on the Securities of such Series as set forth herein and in such Securities.  The Issuer will confirm to the Fiscal Agent by 10:00 a.m. (local time in
      the principal financial center of the relevant coin or currency) on the second business day in the principal financial center of the relevant coin or currency before the due date for any such payment that instructions have been issued by it for such
      payment to be made to the Fiscal Agent.  The Fiscal Agent shall arrange directly with any Paying Agent who may have been appointed by the Issuer pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 for the payment from funds so paid by the Issuer of the principal
      of (and premium, if any) and any interest on the Securities of such Series as set forth herein and in such Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the Authorization expressly so provides, the Issuer may provide directly to a Paying Agent
      funds for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any interest on the Securities of a Series pursuant to an agreement with respect to such funds containing substantially the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Section 4(a)
      and in Section 8(b) and shall so advise the Fiscal Agent; and the Fiscal Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to any funds so provided by the Issuer to any such Paying Agent.  The Issuer hereby authorizes and directs any Paying Agent in
      the absence of notice from the Fiscal Agent that the amounts due under this paragraph have not been received, to make, subject to any applicable laws or regulations, payment of principal of (or premium, if any) and interest on any Securities in
      accordance with the provisions of the Securities.  Immediately upon such Paying Agent’s notifying the Fiscal Agent of payment made by it in respect of the Securities aforesaid, the Fiscal Agent will transfer the same amount in such coin or currency
      as is necessary to make such payment, to such account with such bank as such Paying Agent may specify to the Fiscal Agent.

Any interest on registered Securities of a Series shall be paid, unless otherwise provided in the Securities of such Series, to the persons (the “registered
      owners”) in whose names such Securities are registered on the register maintained pursuant to Section 6 at the close of business on the record dates designated in the Securities of such Series.  Principal of (and premium, if any, on) registered
      Securities of a Series shall be payable against surrender thereof at the Offices of the Fiscal Agent or at the offices of such Paying Agents as the Issuer shall have appointed pursuant to Section 2.  Payments of any interest on registered Securities
      of a Series shall be made, subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer to an account denominated in the currency in which payment is due or by check drawn in that currency and mailed on the due date for such payment to the person
      entitled thereto at the person’s address appearing on the register of the Securities of such Series maintained pursuant to Section 6; provided, however, that, if provided in the Authorization relating to the Securities of such Series,
      such payments may be made in the case of a registered owner of Securities by transfer to an account denominated in the currency in which such payments are to be made maintained by the payee with a bank as specified in the Authorization if such
      registered owner so elects by giving notice to the Fiscal Agent, not less than 15 calendar days (or such fewer days as the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the date of such payments, of such election and of the account to which
      payment is to be made.

Any interest on bearer Securities of a Series shall be payable, subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer to an account denominated in
      the currency in which payment is due or by check drawn in that currency upon surrender of the applicable coupon, and principal of (and premium, if any, on) bearer Securities of such Series shall be payable by wire transfer or check upon surrender of
      such Securities at such offices or agencies of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent outside the United States as the Issuer may from time to time designate, unless the Issuer shall have otherwise instructed the Fiscal Agent or in such other manner as
      may be set forth in the Securities of such Series.  No such check which is mailed shall be mailed to an address in the United States, nor shall any wire or other transfer made in lieu of payment by check be made to an account maintained by the payee
      with a bank in the United States.  Neither the Fiscal Agent nor any Paying Agent shall, and the Issuer shall not instruct the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent to, make such payments on bearer Securities of a Series at an office or agency located in
      the United States unless such payments are to be made in U.S. dollars and payment of the full amount so payable at each office of the Fiscal Agent and of each Paying Agent outside the United States appointed and maintained by the Issuer in accordance
      with Section 2 is illegal or effectively precluded by reason of the imposition of exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the full payment or receipt of such amount in U.S. dollars.

Interest on Securities of a Series in which the rate of interest is a fixed or floating rate will be computed on a basis of a 360‑day year of twelve 30‑day
      months (unadjusted) unless otherwise provided in the Authorization relating to the Securities of such Series.

All payments of principal of (or premium, if any) and interest on Securities denominated in EURO (“EURO Securities”) will be paid in EURO.

Unless otherwise set forth in the Security of a Series, any monies paid by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent for the payment of the
      principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Securities and remaining unclaimed at the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal (or premium, if any) or interest shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity,
      upon call for redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect
      thereto shall cease.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of (or premium, if any, on) such Securities shall terminate at the end of ten years after such principal (or premium, if any) shall have become due and payable.  Any
      obligation that the Issuer may have to pay any interest on such Securities shall terminate at the end of five years after such interest shall have become due and payable.

(b)  Withholding; Payment of Additional Amount.  In respect of the Securities of a Series issued hereunder, at least ten calendar days prior to the
      first date of payment of interest (which, for purposes of this Section 4(b), shall include accrued original issue discount) on the Securities of such Series and at least ten calendar days prior to each date, if any, of payment of principal (and
      premium, if any) or interest thereafter if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below‑mentioned certificate, the Issuer will furnish the Fiscal Agent and each Paying Agent, if any, with respect to such Securities
      with a certificate of an Authorized Officer instructing the Fiscal Agent and such Paying Agent whether such payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or any interest on such Securities shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on
      account of any United States tax, assessment or other governmental charge.  If any such deduction or withholding shall be required, then such certificate shall specify the amount, if any, required to be withheld on such payment to all or certain
      holders of such Securities or coupons.  The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Fiscal Agent, each Paying Agent and each Transfer Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad
      faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by them in reliance on any certificate furnished pursuant hereto.

(c)  Cancelation.  All Securities, together with all coupons thereto appertaining, delivered to any Paying Agent or other Agent appointed by the
      Issuer pursuant to Section 2 for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment as herein or in the Securities provided shall be forwarded to or to the order of the Fiscal Agent by the Agent
      to which they were delivered.  All such Securities and coupons shall be canceled and destroyed by the Fiscal Agent or such other person as may be jointly designated by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent (or otherwise disposed of in accordance with such
      person’s customary procedures), and the Fiscal Agent or such other persons shall thereupon upon request by the Issuer furnish a certificate of such destruction or disposition to the Issuer.

(d)  References to Include Additional Amounts.  All references in this Agreement to principal, premium and interest in respect of Securities of a
      Series shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be deemed to mean and include all additional amounts, if any, payable in respect thereof as set forth herein or in the Securities of such Series.

5.  Exchange of Securities.  (a)  General.  The Fiscal Agent, or its agent duly authorized by the Fiscal Agent, is hereby authorized from
      time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and of this Section 5 to authenticate and deliver:

(i) Securities of a Series in exchange for or in lieu of (a) Securities of such Series of like tenor and of like form which have become mutilated,
      destroyed, stolen or lost, or (b) any coupons appertaining to such Securities which have become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost.  Upon receipt and cancelation by the Fiscal Agent of the mutilated Security or receipt of proof, satisfactory to
      both the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent, in their discretion, of the destruction, theft or loss of the Security, and upon receipt by them of indemnity satisfactory to both of them, the Issuer shall issue a new Security of like tenor and the Fiscal Agent
      shall thereupon deliver such new Security in exchange for the mutilated Security or in substitution for the destroyed, stolen or lost Security.  Such new Security shall be so dated that neither gain nor loss of principal, premium or interest shall
      result from such exchange or substitution.  All expenses associated with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation and delivery of a new Security shall be borne by the person seeking replacement of the Security;

(ii) registered Securities of a Series of authorized denominations in exchange for a like aggregate principal amount of registered
      Securities of such Series of like tenor and of like form;

(iii) if bearer Securities of a Series are authorized to be issued, registered Securities of such Series in exchange for a like aggregate
      principal amount of bearer Securities of such Series of like tenor and of like form;

(iv) if Securities of a Series are subject to partial redemption or purchase, Securities of such Series of authorized denominations in
      exchange for the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of any Securities of such Series redeemed or purchased in part only; and

(v) if specifically so provided by the provisions of the Securities of a Series, Securities of such Series in exchange for Securities of
      another Series;

provided, however, that any definitive registered global Security shall be exchangeable only as
        provided in Sections 5(a)(i), 5(a)(iv) and 5(b) and any definitive bearer global Securities delivered to a Common Depositary shall be exchangeable only as provided in Sections 5(a)(i), 5(a)(iv) and 5(c).

Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for registered Securities.  All bearer Securities of a Series surrendered for exchange for other Securities
      of such Series shall have attached thereto all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto.  Unless otherwise provided in the Authorization, bearer Securities shall be dated the date from which interest on the Securities of such Series first begins to
      accrue.  Registered Securities shall be dated the date of their authentication by the Fiscal Agent.  Each Security authenticated and delivered upon any transfer or exchange for or in lieu of the whole or any part of any Security shall carry all the
      rights, if any, to interest accrued and unpaid and to accrue which were carried by the whole or such part of such Security.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, such new Security, if a registered Security, shall be so dated,
      and, if a bearer Security, shall have attached thereto such coupons, that neither gain nor loss in interest shall result from such transfer or exchange.

(b)  Definitive Registered Global Securities.  This Section 5(b) shall apply only to definitive registered global Securities deposited with a U.S.
      Depositary pursuant to Section 1(f)(i), unless otherwise provided in the Authorization.

A definitive registered global Security shall be exchangeable for definitive registered Securities of the same Series and tenor (x) if the U.S. Depositary
      with respect to such definitive registered global Security notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as U.S. Depositary of such global Security or if at any time such U.S. Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered
      under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and notifies the Issuer thereof and, in either case, the Issuer is unable to appoint a successor U.S. Depositary within five business days of its receipt of such notice, (y) if the Issuer
      delivers to the Fiscal Agent a written notice executed by an Authorized Officer that such definitive registered global Security shall be exchangeable or (z) if an event of default entitling the holders of such definitive registered global Security to
      accelerate the maturity thereof has occurred and is continuing with respect to such definitive registered global Security.

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the individual Securities represented thereby, no definitive registered global Security shall be
      transferred except as a whole by the U.S. Depositary to a nominee of the U.S. Depositary or by a nominee of the U.S. Depositary to the U.S. Depositary or another nominee of the U.S. Depositary or by the U.S. Depositary or any such nominee to a
      successor U.S. Depositary or a nominee of such successor U.S. Depositary.

If the beneficial owners of interests in a definitive registered global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive registered
      Securities of such Series in another form pursuant to the second preceding paragraph, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged the Issuer shall deliver to the Fiscal
      Agent definitive registered Securities in aggregate principal or face amount equal to the principal or face amount of such definitive registered global Security.  On the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such definitive
      registered global Security shall be surrendered by the U.S. Depositary to the Fiscal Agent, as the Issuer’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged without charge, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive registered Securities; and the
      Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such definitive registered global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive registered Securities of the same Series of authorized denominations as the
      portion of such definitive registered global Security to be exchanged; provided, however, that no such exchange may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business ten business days before any date for the selection of
      Securities of such Series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant date of redemption.  Any definitive registered global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be exchangeable for definitive registered Securities issuable
      in the denominations specified in the Authorization and registered in such names as the U.S. Depositary that is the holder of such definitive registered global Security shall direct.  If a definitive registered Security is issued in exchange for any
      portion of a definitive registered global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on the record date for any interest payment date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on such
      interest payment date, interest will not be payable on such interest payment date in respect of such definitive registered Security, but will be payable on such interest payment date only to the person to whom interest in respect of such portion of
      such definitive registered global Security is payable.

The U.S. Depositary may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members,
      to take any action that a holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Securities.

(c)  Definitive Bearer Global Securities.  This Section 5(c) shall apply only to definitive bearer global Securities delivered to a Common
      Depositary for EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System pursuant to Section 1(f)(ii), unless otherwise provided in the Authorization.

If the beneficial owners of interests in a definitive bearer global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive bearer Securities or
      definitive registered Securities of such Series as provided in the Authorization, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the fifteenth calendar day prior to the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged the
      Issuer shall deliver to the Fiscal Agent definitive bearer Securities and/or definitive registered Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such definitive bearer global Security.  On the earliest date (if any) on
      which such interests may be so exchanged, such definitive bearer global Security shall be surrendered outside the United States and its possessions by the Common Depositary to the Fiscal Agent, as the Issuer’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged
      without charge, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive bearer Securities and/or definitive registered Securities; and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for each portion of such definitive bearer global
      Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive bearer Securities and/or definitive registered Securities of the same Series of authorized denominations as the portion of such definitive bearer global Security to be exchanged, in such
      combination thereof as shall be specified by the beneficial owner thereof and communicated to the Fiscal Agent through EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, and, if in registered form, registered in such name as may be specified by the
      beneficial owner thereof and so communicated to the Fiscal Agent; provided, however, that no such exchange may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days before any date for the selection of Securities
      of such Series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant date of redemption; and provided further, that no definitive bearer Security delivered in exchange for a portion of a definitive bearer global Security shall be mailed or otherwise
      delivered to any location in the United States and its possessions.  If a definitive registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a definitive bearer global Security after the close of business at the office or agency where such
      exchange occurs on the record date for any interest payment date and before the opening of business at such office or agency on such interest payment date, interest will not be payable on such interest payment date in respect of such registered
      Security, but will be payable on such interest payment date only to the person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such definitive bearer global Security is payable.

So long as the Common Depositary is the holder of a definitive bearer global Security, such Common Depositary, as the case may be, will be considered the
      sole owner or holder of the Securities represented by such definitive bearer global Security for the purposes of receiving payment on the Securities, receiving notices and for all other purposes under this Agreement and the definitive bearer global
      Security.  The Common Depositary may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM, Clearing System and beneficial owners of such global Security, to take any action that a holder is entitled to take under this
      Agreement or such global Security.  Beneficial interests in a definitive bearer global Security will be evidenced only by, and transfers thereof will be affected only through, records maintained by EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System.

6.  Register.  The Fiscal Agent, as agent of the Issuer, shall maintain at its Agency & Trust Services in the City of New York or in London, as
      specified in the Authorization relating to such Securities, a register for the registration of transfers of each Series of Securities issued in whole or in part in registered form.  Upon surrender for the purpose of registration of transfer at such
      office of the Fiscal Agent of any registered Security of such Series, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form approved by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent (it being understood that, until notice to the contrary is given to holders
      of Securities of a Series, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent shall each be deemed to have approved the form of instrument of transfer, if any, printed on any definitive registered Security of such Series) and executed by the registered holder in person
      or by such holder’s attorney thereunto duly authorized in writing, such Security shall be transferred upon the register for Securities of such Series, and a new registered Security of such Series shall be authenticated and issued in the name of the
      transferee; provided, however, that registered Securities may be delivered for the purpose of registration of transfer by mail but only at the risk and expense of the transferor.  Transfers and exchanges of Securities of a Series
      shall be subject to such restrictions as shall be set forth in the Securities of such Series and such reasonable regulations as may be prescribed by the Issuer.  Successive registrations of transfers as aforesaid may be made from time to time as
      desired, and each such registration shall be noted on the security register.  No service charge shall be made for any registration, transfer or exchange of Securities of a Series unless otherwise provided by the provisions of the Securities of such
      Series, but, except as permitted herein with respect to the exchange of temporary securities for definitive securities, the Fiscal Agent (and any Transfer Agent or authenticating agent appointed pursuant to Section 2 or 3) may require payment of a
      sum sufficient to cover any stamp or other tax or governmental charge in connection with any registration, transfer or exchange.

Any Transfer Agent appointed pursuant to Section 2 shall provide to the Fiscal Agent such information as the Fiscal Agent may reasonably require in
      connection with the delivery by such Transfer Agent of Securities in exchange for other Securities.

Neither the Fiscal Agent nor any Transfer Agent shall be required to make registrations of transfer or exchange of Securities of a Series during any period
      specified as not requiring registrations of transfer or exchange in the Securities of such Series.

In addition, in the case of Securities of a Series which includes a U.S. Global Security and a European Global Security, the Fiscal Agent will be
      responsible for (i) maintaining a record of the aggregate holdings of all outstanding Securities evidenced by the U.S. Global Security and the European Global Security; (ii) registering transfers between the U.S. Depositary, on the one hand, and
      EUROCLEAR or CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System, on the other hand; (iii) ensuring that payments of principal, premium and interest in respect of the Securities received by the Fiscal Agent from the Issuer are duly credited to the holders of the
      Securities; (iv) transmitting to the Issuer any notices from the holders of the Securities; and (v) maintaining and promptly updating the respective Schedules to the U.S. Global Security and the European Global Security.

7.  Sinking Fund and Optional Redemption; Repurchases of Securities.  (a) The Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Fiscal Agent to administer
      the sinking fund with respect to the Securities of any Series having a mandatory sinking fund or similar provision in accordance with the provisions of the Securities of such Series.  In the event that the provisions of the Securities of a Series
      permit the Issuer to redeem Securities of such Series at its option, the Issuer shall, unless otherwise specified in the Securities of such Series, give written notice to the Fiscal Agent of the principal amount of Securities of such Series to be
      redeemed not more than 60 nor less than ten calendar days prior to the optional redemption date.  All notices of redemption of the Securities of a Series shall be made in the name and at the expense of the Issuer and shall be given in accordance with
      the provisions applicable thereto set forth in the Authorization relating to or in the Securities of such Series.  In the event that the provisions set forth in the Authorization or in the Securities of a Series permit the Issuer to redeem Securities
      of such Series only upon the occurrence or satisfaction of a condition or conditions precedent thereto, prior to the giving of notice of redemption of the Securities of such Series, the Issuer shall deliver to the Fiscal Agent a certificate of an
      Authorized Officer stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth in reasonable detail a statement of facts showing that such condition or conditions precedent have occurred or been satisfied.  In the event that the
      provisions of the Securities of a Series permit the holders thereof, at their option, to cause the Issuer to redeem or purchase such Securities, the Issuer shall arrange with the Fiscal Agent (and any Paying Agent for such purpose) for the provision
      of funds sufficient to make payments to such holders in respect of such redemptions or purchases, and the Fiscal Agent shall provide to the Issuer from time to time reasonably detailed information as to such redemptions or purchases.

Whenever less than all of the Securities of a Series at any time outstanding are to be redeemed at the option of the Issuer, the particular Securities of
      such Series to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 nor less than ten calendar days prior to the redemption date by the Fiscal Agent from the then outstanding Securities of such Series, in the case of bearer Securities of such Series,
      individually by lot (unless all bearer Securities are subject to such redemption), in the case of registered Securities of such Series, by such usual method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and, in the case of Securities of such
      Series in global form, individually by lot or on a pro rata basis in accordance with the rules and procedures of the relevant securities clearing system.  Upon any partial redemption of a registered Security of a Series, the Fiscal
      Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more registered Securities of such Series, in any authorized denomination requested by the holder thereof, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the principal
      of such Security.  Upon any partial redemption of Securities that are in the form of a definitive bearer global Security, such partial redemption shall be effected by EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM or Clearing System in accordance with its respective
      operating procedures.

(b) The Issuer shall have the right at any time to purchase Securities in the open market or otherwise.  Any Securities so purchased may be resold at the
      Issuer’s discretion if not surrendered to the Fiscal Agent for cancelation.

8.  Conditions of Fiscal Agent’s Obligations.  The Fiscal Agent accepts its obligations herein set forth upon the terms and conditions hereof,
      including the following, to all of which the Issuer agrees and to all of which the rights of holders from time to time of Securities are subject:

(a)  Compensation and Indemnity.  The Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to compensation as agreed separately with the Issuer
      for all services rendered by it, and the Issuer agrees promptly to pay such compensation and to reimburse the Fiscal Agent for the documented out-of-pocket expenses (including fees of legal counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with its
      services hereunder.  The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Fiscal Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, damages, demand or expense (including, but not limited to, all reasonable costs, charges and expenses
      paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which the Fiscal Agent may incur or which may be made against it arising out of or in connection with its acting as Fiscal Agent hereunder, except for those arising from the material
      breach by the Fiscal Agent of this Agreement (providing such material breach is within the Fiscal Agent’s control) or its negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud or that of its directors, officers or employees.  The

      obligations of the Issuer under this Section 8(a) shall survive the payment of all the Securities and the resignation or removal of the Fiscal Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances will the Issuer be liable to the Fiscal Agent or any other person for any indirect,
      incidental or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit), even if advised of such loss or damage or the possibility thereof.

(b)  Agency.  In acting under this Agreement and in connection with the Securities, the Fiscal Agent is acting solely as agent of
      the Issuer and does not assume any responsibility for the correctness of the recitals in the Securities (except for the correctness of the statement in the certificate of authentication thereon) or any obligation (or relationship of agency or trust)
      for or with any of the owners or holders of the Securities.  All funds held by the Fiscal Agent for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on the Securities shall be held as a banker and not as trustee and as a result such
      monies shall not be held in accordance with the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority’s (or any regulatory authority that may succeed it as a United Kingdom regulator) client money rules.  The Fiscal Agent may deal with monies paid to it under
      this Agreement in the same manner as other monies paid to it as a banker by its customers except that (i) it may not exercise any lien, right of set-off or similar claim in respect of them, (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 8(f), it shall not
      be liable to anyone for interest on any sums held by it under this Agreement, and (iii) any monies held by it need not be segregated except as required by law.  Monies held in respect of the Securities of a Series for the payment of the principal of
      (or premium, if any) or interest on such Securities that remain unclaimed at the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal (or premium) or interest shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity, upon call for
      redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, as provided and in the manner set forth in the Securities of such Series.

(c)  Advice of Legal Counsel.  Each of the Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent may consult with such legal
      counsel as is satisfactory to it, and the written opinion of such legal counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith, without negligence and in accordance
      with such opinion.

(d)  Reliance.  Each of the Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent shall be protected and shall incur no liability
      for or in respect of any action taken or thing suffered by it in reliance upon any Security, notice, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement, or other paper or document believed by it, in good faith and without negligence, to be genuine
      and to have been adopted or signed by the proper parties.

Unless herein otherwise specifically provided, any order, notice, request or other instrument of the Issuer made or given by it under any provision of this
      Agreement shall be sufficient if signed by the President or any Vice President of the Issuer, or in accordance with any list of authorized signatories of the Issuer which shall have been made available by it and as to which the Fiscal Agent shall not
      have received notice of the rescission thereof, or by any other official of the Issuer who shall have been designated in writing to the Fiscal Agent by such President or Vice President.  The Fiscal Agent and each Paying Agent shall be fully justified
      and protected in relying and acting upon any instructions received by it and signed in the manner provided in the preceding sentence or upon the advice of the legal advisers for the Issuer, and shall be fully justified and protected in relying and
      acting upon and dealing with any Security, notice or other instrument or paper (including notices, lists of Securities and other instruments or information received from the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent) believed by the Fiscal Agent or any Paying
      Agent to be genuine and duly authorized and properly executed.  The Fiscal Agent and each Paying Agent shall not be accountable for the use or application of any Securities or moneys which shall have been delivered or disposed of by them in
      accordance with the express provisions of this Agreement or the Securities.  Neither the Fiscal Agent nor any Paying Agent shall in any way be responsible or accountable for the action or failure to act of any other of them.

(e)  Interest in Securities, etc.  Each of the Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent and its officers, directors
      and employees may become the owners of, or acquire any interest in, any Securities with the same rights that it would have if it were not the Fiscal Agent, a Paying Agent, a Transfer Agent or such a person and may engage or be interested in any
      financial or other transaction with the Issuer and may act on behalf of, or as depository, trustee or agent for, any committee or body of holders of Securities or other obligations of the Issuer, as freely as if it were not the Fiscal Agent, such a
      Paying Agent, such a Transfer Agent or such a person.

The Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent and any Transfer Agent may become creditors, directly or indirectly, of the Issuer, make any loan or loans thereto, own,
      accept or negotiate any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances or obligations thereof, make disbursements therefor and enter into any commercial or business arrangements therewith, without being obliged to account for any profits.  The Issuer may
      maintain deposit accounts and conduct other banking transactions in the ordinary course of business with the Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent.

(f)  Non-Liability for Interest.  Subject to any agreement between the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent to the contrary and except as
      otherwise provided herein, the Fiscal Agent shall not be under any liability for interest on monies at any time received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Securities.

(g)  Certifications.  Whenever in the administration of this Agreement the Fiscal Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that
      a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Fiscal Agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith or negligence on its part, rely upon a
      certificate signed by any person authorized by or pursuant to the Authorization and delivered to the Fiscal Agent.

(h)  No Implied Obligations.  The duties and obligations of the Fiscal Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions
      of this Agreement; the Fiscal Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement; and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the
      Fiscal Agent.

9.  Resignation and Appointment of Successor.  (a) Fiscal Agent, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent.  The Issuer agrees, for the benefit of the
      holders from time to time of the Securities, that there shall at all times be (i) a Fiscal Agent hereunder which shall be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or the State of New York, in
      good standing and having and acting through an established place of business in The City of New York or in London, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and (ii) to the extent required by the provisions of bearer
      Securities, if any, unless payments are permitted by the provisions of the third paragraph of Section 4(a) to be made in the United States, a Paying Agent outside the United States for payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on
      such bearer Securities, until all the Securities authenticated and delivered hereunder shall have been delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancelation or become due and payable and monies sufficient to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) or any
      interest on such Securities shall have been made available for payment and either paid or returned to the Issuer as provided herein and in such Securities.

(b)  Resignation.  The Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, if any, may at any time resign by giving written notice to the Issuer of such
      intention on its part, specifying the date on which its desired resignation shall become effective, provided that such date shall not be less than 90 calendar days from the date on which such notice is given, unless the Issuer agrees to
      accept shorter notice.  The Fiscal Agent, any Paying Agent or any Transfer Agent hereunder may be removed at any time by the filing with it of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Issuer and specifying such removal and the date when it
      shall become effective.  Notwithstanding the dates of effectiveness of resignation or removal, as the case may be, such resignation or removal shall take effect only upon (i) the appointment by the Issuer, as hereinafter provided, of (A) in the case
      of the resignation or removal of the Fiscal Agent, a successor Fiscal Agent (which, to qualify as such, shall be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or the State of New York, in good
      standing and having and acting through an established place of business in The City of New York or in London, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers) or (B) in the case of the resignation or removal of any Paying Agent or
      Transfer Agent, a successor Paying Agent or Transfer Agent, if required pursuant to Section 9(a), and (ii) the acceptance of such appointment by such successor Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent.  Upon its resignation or removal, the Fiscal
      Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to payment by the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement of compensation for services rendered by it and to reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket expenses (including fees of
      legal counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with its services hereunder.

(c)  Successors.  If at any time the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent or any Paying Agent in respect of the Securities of a Series (if such Paying
      Agent is the only Paying Agent located in a place where, by the terms of the Securities of such Series or this Agreement, the Issuer is required to maintain a Paying Agent) shall resign, or shall be removed, or shall become incapable of acting, or
      shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consent to the appointment of a receiver of all or any substantial part of its property, or shall
      admit in writing its inability to pay or meet its debts as they severally mature, or if a receiver of it or of all or any substantial part of its property shall be appointed, or if an order of any court shall be entered approving any petition filed
      by or against it under the provisions of applicable receivership, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar legislation, or if a receiver of it or its property shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or control of
      it or of its property or affairs, for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, a successor Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, qualified as aforesaid, shall be appointed by the Issuer by an instrument
      in writing, filed with the successor Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and the predecessor Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be.  Upon the appointment as aforesaid of a successor Fiscal
      Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and acceptance by such successor of such appointment, the Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be, so succeeded shall cease to be Fiscal Agent, Transfer Agent or
      Paying Agent, as the case may be, hereunder.  If, by the tenth day before the expiry of any notice of resignation, no successor Fiscal Agent or Transfer Agent shall have been so appointed by the Issuer and shall have accepted appointment or if no
      successor Paying Agent for a Series shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted appointment to succeed the only Paying Agent located in a place where, by the terms of the Securities of such Series or this Agreement, the Issuer is required to
      maintain a Paying Agent, then any holder of a Security who has been a bona fide holder of a Security for at least six months (which Security, in the case of such Paying Agent, is of the Series referred to in this sentence), on behalf of itself and
      all others similarly situated, or the Fiscal Agent, the Transfer Agent or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, may, in the case of any Agent only, itself appoint any reputable financial institution as a successor Agent in consultation with the
      Issuer and, in the case of any holder or any Agent, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, as the case may be.  The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to each Paying Agent
      and Transfer Agent of the appointment of a successor Fiscal Agent.

(d)  Acknowledgment.  Any successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor and to
      the Issuer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the authority, rights, powers, trusts, immunities,
      duties and obligations of such predecessor with like effect as if originally named as Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent hereunder, and such predecessor, upon payment of its compensation and reimbursement of its disbursements then unpaid, shall thereupon
      become obligated to transfer, deliver and pay over, and such successor Fiscal Agent or Paying Agent shall be entitled to receive, all monies, securities, books, records or other property on deposit with or held by such predecessor as Fiscal Agent or
      Paying Agent hereunder.

(e)  Merger, Consolidation, etc.  Any corporation into which the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent hereunder may be merged, or any corporation
      resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent shall be a party, or any corporation to which the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent shall sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all the corporate trust
      or agency assets and business of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent, provided that it shall be qualified as aforesaid, shall be the successor Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement without the execution
      or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

(f)  Separate Fiscal Agents.  The Issuer may appoint a separate fiscal agent for the Securities of any Series in addition to or in lieu of the
      Fiscal Agent or any other fiscal agent which is acting as such agent for the Securities of any other Series.  Any such separate fiscal agent shall be a bank or trust company organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America
      or the State of New York, in good standing and having and acting through an established place of business in The City of New York or in London, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers.  Any separate fiscal agent shall enter
      into an agreement with the Issuer under which such fiscal agent shall agree to act on substantially the terms applicable to the Fiscal Agent hereunder.

10.  Payment of Taxes.  Payments will be subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.  Neither the Issuer
      nor any Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Security or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from such payments or any currency conversion or rounding effected in connection therewith.

11.  Meetings and Amendments.  (a)  Calling of Meeting, Notice and Quorum.  A meeting of holders of Securities of a Series may be called at
      any time and from time to time to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement or the Securities of such Series to be made, taken or given by holders of
      Securities of such Series or to modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Securities of such Series or this Agreement as hereinafter provided.  The Issuer may at any time call a meeting of holders of Securities of a Series for any
      such purpose to be held at such time and at such place (including, but not limited to, Xxx Xxxx xx Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxxxx) as it shall determine.  Notice of every meeting of holders of Securities of a Series, setting forth the time and the
      place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting, shall be given as provided in the terms of the Securities of such Series, not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for the
      meeting.  In addition, if at any time the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (as defined in Section 11(d)) of a Series shall have requested the Issuer to call a meeting of the holders of Securities of
      such Series for any such purpose, by written request to the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent (with a copy to the Issuer) setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, the Issuer shall call such meeting for such purposes
      by giving notice thereof.  The time and place of such meeting (including, but not limited to, Xxx Xxxx xx Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxxxx) shall be determined by the Issuer.

To be entitled to vote at any meeting of holders of Securities of a Series, a person shall be a holder of outstanding Securities of such Series or, in the
      case of registered Securities of such Series, a person duly appointed by an instrument in writing as proxy for such a holder.  The persons entitled to vote a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of a Series shall constitute a
      quorum.  At the reconvening of any meeting adjourned for a lack of a quorum, the persons entitled to vote 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of a Series shall constitute a quorum for the taking of any action set forth in the notice
      of the original meeting.  The Issuer may make such reasonable and customary regulations as it shall deem advisable for any meeting of holders of Securities of a Series with respect to the proof of the holding of bearer Securities of such Series and
      of the appointment of proxies in respect of holders of registered Securities of such Series, the record date for determining the registered owners of registered Securities of such Series who are entitled to vote at such meeting (which date shall be
      set forth in the notice calling such meeting hereinabove referred to and which shall be not less than 30 nor more than 90 calendar days prior to such meeting), the adjournment and chairmanship of such meeting, the appointment and duties of inspectors
      of votes, the submission and examination of proxies, certificates and other evidence of the right to vote and such other matters concerning the conduct of the meeting as it shall deem appropriate.

(b)  Approval.  (i)  At any meeting of holders of Securities of a Series duly called and held, upon the affirmative vote, in person or (in the case
      of registered owners of Securities of such Series) by proxy thereunto duly authorized in writing, of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series represented at such meeting or (ii) with the
      written consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a Series then outstanding (or, in either such case, such other percentage as may be set forth in the Securities of such Series with respect
      to the action being taken), the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Securities of such Series or, insofar as it affects the Securities of such Series, this Agreement in any way, and the holders
      of Securities of such Series may make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement or the Securities of such Series to be made, taken or given by holders of Securities
      of such Series; provided, however, that no such action may, without the consent of the holder of each Security of such Series affected thereby, (A) change the due date for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or
      any installment of interest on any Security of such Series, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Security of such Series, the portion of such principal amount which is payable upon acceleration of the maturity of such Security, the interest rate
      thereon or the premium payable upon redemption thereof, (C) change the coin or currency in which (unless required by law of the jurisdiction which issued such coin or currency) or the required places at which payment with respect to interest, premium
      or principal in respect of Securities of such Series is payable, (D) shorten the period during which the Issuer is not permitted to redeem the Securities of such Series, or permit the Issuer to redeem the Securities of such Series if, prior to such
      action, the Issuer is not permitted to do so, or (E) reduce the proportion of the principal amount of Securities of such Series the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or supplement this Agreement or the terms and
      conditions of the Securities of such Series or to make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
      Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, without the vote or consent of any holder of Securities, amend this Agreement or the Securities of a Series for the purpose of (v) adding to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the holders of the
      Securities, (w) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, (x) securing the Securities pursuant to the requirements of the Securities or otherwise, (y) curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective
      provision thereof, or (z) amending this Agreement or the Securities of such Series in any manner that the Issuer reasonably determines is not inconsistent with the Securities of such Series in any material respect and does not adversely affect the
      interests of any holder of Securities of such Series in any material respect.

It shall not be necessary for the vote or consent of the holders of Securities of a Series to approve the particular form of any proposed modification,
      amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but it shall be sufficient if such vote or consent shall approve the substance thereof.

(c)  Binding Nature of Amendments, Notices, Notations, etc.  Any instrument given by or on behalf of any holder of a Security of a Series in
      connection with any consent to or vote for any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action will be irrevocable once given and will be conclusive and binding on all
      subsequent holders of such Security or any Security issued directly or indirectly upon registration of transfer thereof, in exchange or substitution therefor or in lieu thereof.  Any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand,
      authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action will be conclusive and binding on all holders of Securities of a Series, whether or not they have given such consent or cast such vote, and whether or not notation of such
      modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action is made upon the Securities of such Series.  Notice of any modification or amendment of, supplement to, or request, demand,
      authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action with respect to the Securities of a Series or this Agreement (other than for purposes of curing any ambiguity or of curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision hereof
      or thereof) shall be given to each holder of Securities affected thereby, in all cases as provided in Securities of such Series.

Securities of a Series authenticated and delivered after the effectiveness of any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization,
      direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action may bear a notation in the form approved by the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer as to any matter provided for in such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction,
      notice, consent, waiver or other action.  New Securities of such Series modified to conform, in the opinion of the Fiscal Agent and the Issuer, to any such modification, amendment, supplement, request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
      consent, waiver or other action may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the Fiscal Agent (or any authenticating agent appointed pursuant to Section 3) and delivered in exchange for outstanding Securities of such Series.

(d)  “Outstanding” Defined.  For purposes of the provisions of this Agreement and the Securities, any Security authenticated and delivered pursuant
      to this Agreement shall, as of any date of determination, be deemed to be “outstanding”, except:

(i) Securities theretofore canceled by the Fiscal Agent or delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancelation or held by the Fiscal Agent for
      reissuance but not reissued by the Fiscal Agent;

(ii) Securities which have been called for redemption in accordance with their terms or which have become due and payable at maturity or
      otherwise and with respect to which monies sufficient to pay the principal thereof (and premium, if any) and any interest thereon shall have been made available to the Fiscal Agent; or

(iii) Securities in lieu of or in substitution for which other Securities shall have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this
      Agreement;

provided, however, that in determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of
        outstanding Securities of a Series are present at a meeting of holders of Securities of such Series for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment,
        modification or supplement hereunder, Securities of such Series owned directly or indirectly by the Issuer shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding.

(e)  Written Resolutions.  A written resolution signed by or on behalf of the holders of the requisite majority in aggregate principal amount of the
      Securities of a Series then outstanding shall be valid for all purposes as if it was a resolution passed at a meeting of holders of Securities of such Series duly called and held.  A written resolution may be set out in one or more documents in like
      form each signed by or on behalf of one or more of such holders.

12.  Indemnity by Fiscal Agent.  The Fiscal Agent shall indemnify the Issuer for, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, cost, claim,
      action, damages, demand or expense (including, but not limited to, all reasonable costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) which the Issuer may incur or which may be made against it as a result of a
      material breach of this Agreement by the Fiscal Agent (providing such material breach is within the Fiscal Agent’s control) or its willful misconduct, negligence or fraud or that of its directors, officers or employees.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances will the Fiscal Agent be liable to the Issuer or any other person for any indirect, incidental or
      consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of business, goodwill, opportunity or profit), even if advised of such loss or damage.

The indemnities contained in this Section 12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, payment of all the Securities and the resignation or removal
      of the Fiscal Agent.

13.  Further Issues.  The Issuer may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of any of the holders of the Securities of any Series,
      create and issue additional Securities ranking pari passu with the Securities of any Series and having the same terms as to status, interest rate, maturity, redemption or otherwise in all respects as the Securities of such Series
      (except for the public offering price, the issue date, and in some cases, the first interest payment date).  Such additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single Series with the Securities of such Series, including for purposes of
      voting and redemptions, and increase the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such Series.

14.  Notices.  (a)  All notices, requests or other communications between the parties hereunder, except as herein otherwise specifically provided,
      shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person, transmitted by facsimile or mailed by first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested) or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery to the addresses established for
      such purposes in this Section 14:

15.  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, except with respect
      to its authorization and execution by the Issuer, which shall be governed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “TFEU”), and the Statute of the Issuer, as amended and supplemented
      from time to time, which is annexed to the TFEU as Protocol (No 5) on the Statute of the European Investment Bank.

16.  Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.  (a)  The Issuer hereby expressly accepts the jurisdiction of any State or Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in respect of any
        action arising out of or based upon the Securities of any Series or this Agreement which may be instituted in any such court by the holder of a Security of such Series; provided, however,
        that such acceptance of jurisdiction shall not extend to actions brought under United States Federal securities laws or any state securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action arising out of or based upon the Securities of any Series
        or this Agreement may be instituted by the holder of a Security of such Series in any competent court of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer has its seat.

(b)  The Issuer hereby appoints the Ambassador of the European Union to
        the United States, with address at Delegation of the European Union to the United States, 0000 X Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxxxxxxx, X.X. 00000, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx of America, as its
        authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) upon whom process may be served in any action arising out of or based upon the Securities of any Series or this Agreement which may be instituted in any State or
        Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York by the holder of a Security of such Series; provided, however, that such appointment shall not extend to actions brought under United States Federal securities laws or
        any state securities laws.  Such appointment, which has been accepted, shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Securities of such Series remain outstanding unless and until the appointment of a successor Authorized Agent of the Issuer and the
        acceptance of such appointment by such successor Authorized Agent.  The Issuer will take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such
          appointment or appointments in full force and effect as aforesaid.  Service of process upon the Authorized Agent at the address indicated in this Section 16(b), as such address may be changed within the United States by notice given by the
          Authorized Agent to each party hereto, and written notice of such service to the Issuer (mailed by registered airmail or delivered in person to the President of the Issuer at its address specified in Section 14) shall be deemed, in every respect,
          effective service of process upon the Issuer.

(c)  The Issuer hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law, including, without limitation, EU law applicable to the Issuer) irrevocably any immunity from
      jurisdiction or execution to which it or its property might otherwise be entitled in any action arising out of or based upon the Securities of any Series or this Agreement which may be instituted in any State or Federal court in the Borough of
      Manhattan, The City of New York by the holder of a Security of such Series; provided, however, that this waiver shall not extend to actions brought under United States Federal securities laws or any state securities laws.  This waiver
      is intended to be effective upon the execution of this Agreement without any further act by the Issuer before any such court, and introduction of a true copy of this Agreement into evidence shall be conclusive and final evidence of such waiver. 
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the property and assets of the Issuer within the Member States are not, except by judicial decision and with the authorization of the Court of Justice of the European Union, subject to attachment or to seizure by way of
      execution.

17.  Headings.  The section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by each party separately on a separate counterpart, and each such counterpart when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original. Such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

19.  Compliance with Law, Directive or Regulation.  Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Fiscal Agent may refrain without liability
      from doing anything that would or might in its reasonable opinion (following advice from legal counsel) be contrary to any law of any state or jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, the European Union, the United States of America or, in each
      case, any jurisdiction forming a part of it, and England & Wales) or any directive or regulation of any agency of any such state or jurisdiction and may without liability do anything which is, in its reasonable opinion, necessary to comply with
      any such law, directive or regulation.  The Fiscal Agent shall as soon as practicable and insofar as permissible inform the Issuer if, pursuant to this paragraph, it refrains from acting under this Agreement.

[Denomination]

European Investment Bank (herein called the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ________________________, or registered assigns, the
      principal sum of [$]_____________ on ________________________ (the “Stated Maturity”).

[If the Security is to bear interest prior to maturity, insert‑‑, and to pay interest thereon from _____________ or from the most recent Interest
      Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, [annually] [semi-annually] in arrear on ___________ [and _______________] in each year ([each] an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing _________________, at the rate [of ____% per
      annum] [to be determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth], until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment [if applicable, insert‑‑, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
      enforceable) at the rate of _____% per annum on any overdue principal [and premium] and on any overdue installment of interest].  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the
      Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person (the “registered holder”) in whose name this Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the ____ [or ____] (whether or not a
      business day) [, as the case may be] ([each] a “Regular Record Date”)[,] next preceding such Interest Payment Date.  In respect of all currencies other than EURO, interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360‑day year, consisting of twelve 30‑day
      months (unadjusted).  In the case of EURO, interest will be calculated on the basis of the number of days elapsed divided by 360 and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest amount of the relevant currency (with halves being rounded upwards). 
      Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the person in whose name this Security (or one or more predecessor
      Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such interest to be fixed by the Issuer, notice whereof shall be given to registered holders of Securities of this series not less than [   ] calendar days
      prior to such special record date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by
      such exchange.]

[Insert floating interest rate provisions, if applicable.]

[If the Security is not to bear interest prior to maturity, insert‑‑The principal of this Security shall not bear interest except in the case of a
      default in payment of principal upon acceleration, upon redemption or at Stated Maturity and in such case the overdue principal of this Security shall bear interest at the rate of ____% per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall
      be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for.  Interest on any overdue principal shall be payable on demand.  Any such interest on any
      overdue principal that is not so paid on demand shall bear interest at the rate of ____% per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such demand for payment to the date
      payment of such interest has been made or duly provided for, and such interest shall also be payable on demand.]

Payment of the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security will be made at the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent
      hereinafter referred to [or at such other offices or agencies as the Issuer may designate and notify the holders as provided in Paragraph [6(d)] hereof] and at the offices of such other Paying Agents as the Issuer shall have appointed pursuant to the
      Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to.  Payments of principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] this Security shall be made against surrender of this Security, and payments of any interest on this Security shall be made, in accordance with the
      foregoing and subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer to an account denominated in the currency in which payment is due or by check drawn in that currency and mailed on the due date for such payment to the person entitled thereto
      at such person’s address appearing on the aforementioned register or [, in the case of payments of principal [(and premium, if any)],] to such other address as the registered holder may specify upon such surrender [; provided, however,
      that any payments shall be made, in the case of a registered holder of at least [$]________ aggregate principal amount of Securities of such series, by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank [located in ________] if such
      registered holder so elects by giving notice to the Fiscal Agent, not less than 15 calendar days (or such fewer days as the Fiscal Agent may accept at its discretion) prior to the date of the payments to be made, of such election and of the account
      to which payments are to be made].  The Issuer covenants that until this Security has been delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancelation, or monies sufficient to pay the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security have
      been made available for payment and either paid or returned to the Issuer as provided herein, it will at all times maintain offices or agencies in [The City of New York] [and in Europe (which, so long as the Securities are listed on [the __________
      Stock Exchange] and such Exchange shall so require, shall include an office or agency in [insert‑‑name of city])] for the payment of the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security as herein provided.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have
      the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Fiscal Agent by manual signature, this Security shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

Terms and Conditions of the Securities

1.  This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or
      more series in accordance with a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020 (herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), between the Issuer and Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as Fiscal Agent (herein called the “Fiscal Agent”, which term
      includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement).  To the extent not otherwise set forth in this Security, reference is hereby made to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the respective rights, duties, obligations,
      immunities and limitations of rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and the holders of Securities.  Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and this Security are on file and available for inspection at the Agency & Trust Services of the
      Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, during business hours on any business day and, so long as the Securities are listed on [the __________ Stock Exchange] and such Exchange shall so require,
      at the office of the Paying Agent hereinafter named in [insert‑‑name of city].  This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof[, limited in aggregate principal amount to [$]___________].

The Securities constitute unconditional, direct and general obligations of the Issuer in accordance with the terms for their payment and performance.  The
      Securities shall rank pari passu with any present or future indebtedness of the Issuer represented by any unsubordinated and unsecured notes or bonds.

2.  The Securities are issuable in fully registered form (the “Registered Securities”) and are issuable in [the] authorized denomination[s] of [$]_________
      [and [any integral multiple thereof] [integral multiples of [$]_______ above that amount]].

3.  The Issuer shall maintain in [The City of New York] [London], an office or agency where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
      exchange.  The Issuer has initially appointed the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent as its agent in [The City of New York] [London] for such purpose and has agreed to cause to be kept at such office a register in which, subject to such
      reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer will provide for the registration of Registered Securities and registration of transfers of Registered Securities.  [In addition, the Issuer has appointed the main offices of ___________ in
      ________ and ______________ in ____________ as additional agencies (each a “Transfer Agent”) where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.]  The Issuer reserves the right to vary or terminate the appointment of the
      Fiscal Agent as security registrar [or of any Transfer Agent] or to appoint additional or other registrars [or Transfer Agents] or to approve any change in the office through which any security registrar [or any Transfer Agent] acts, provided
      that there will at all times be a security registrar in [The City of New York] [London] [, and a Transfer Agent in a European city].

The transfer of a Registered Security is registrable on the aforementioned register upon surrender of such Security at the [appropriate office] of the
      Fiscal Agent [or any Transfer Agent] duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the registered holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
      writing.  Upon such surrender of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered
      Securities, dated the date of authentication thereof, of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

At the option of the registered holder upon request confirmed in writing, Registered Securities may be exchanged for Registered Securities of any authorized
      denominations and of a like tenor, form and aggregate principal amount upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at the [office of any Transfer Agent or at the] [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent.  Whenever any Registered Securities are
      so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Registered Securities which the registered holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.  Any registration of transfer or exchange
      will be effected upon [the Transfer Agent or] the Fiscal Agent[, as the case may be,] being satisfied with the documents of title and identify of the person making the request and subject to such reasonable regulations as the Issuer may from time to
      time agree with [any Transfer Agent and] the Fiscal Agent.

[In the event of a redemption of the Securities in part, the Issuer shall not be required (a) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a
      period beginning at the opening of business ten business days before, and continuing until, the date notice is given identifying the Securities to be redeemed[,] [or] (b) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security, or portion
      thereof, called for redemption, except for a Registered Security of like aggregate principal amount which is simultaneously surrendered for redemption.]

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and
      entitled to the same benefits, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.  No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to
      cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than an exchange in connection with a partial redemption of a Security not involving any registration of a transfer.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent may
      treat the person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

4.  (a)  The Issuer shall pay to the Fiscal Agent at its principal office in the City of London, on or prior to [each Interest Payment Date][,] [any
      redemption date] [and] the Stated Maturity of the Securities, such amounts as are sufficient (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to pay the [interest on][,] [the redemption price of and accrued interest (if
      the redemption date is not an Interest Payment Date) on, and] the principal of the Securities due and payable on such [Interest Payment Date][,] [redemption date] [or] [at] Stated Maturity [, as the case may be].  The Fiscal Agent shall apply the
      amounts so paid to it to the payment of such [interest][,] [redemption price] [and] principal in accordance with the terms of the Securities.  Any monies paid by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of
      [(or premium, if any, on)] [or interest on] any Securities and remaining unclaimed at the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal [(or premium, if any)] [or interest] shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity,
      upon call for redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect
      thereto shall cease.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] such Securities shall terminate at the end of ten years after such principal [(or premium, if any)] shall have become due and payable. 
      [Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay any interest on such Securities shall terminate at the end of five years after such interest shall have become due and payable.]

(b)  In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [or interest on] any Security [or the date fixed for
      redemption of any Security] shall be a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in any place of payment or in the place that is the financial center for the currency of payment, then payment of principal [(and
      premium)] [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 that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in such
      place of payment or the financial center for the currency of payment, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment [or the date fixed for redemption], and no additional interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

5.  Payment of the principal of [and premium, if any, on] and interest on this Security made at the offices of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent shall be
      subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.  Consequently, neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent will make any additional payment in the event of a withholding tax being required in respect of any payment
      under or in connection with this Security.  Neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Security or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from such payments or any
      currency conversion or rounding effected in connection therewith.

[6.  (a)  [If applicable, insert‑‑The Securities are subject to redemption upon not more than 60 nor less than ten calendar days’ notice given as
      hereinafter provided, [if applicable, insert‑‑(i) on ___________ in any year, commencing with the year ____ and ending with the year ____, through operation of the sinking fund for this series at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
      principal amount, and (ii)] [at any time [on or after _________], as a whole or in part, at the election of the Issuer, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed):  If
      redeemed [on or before __________, ___%, and if redeemed] during the 12‑month period beginning ___________ of the years indicated,

Year	Redemption Price	Year	Redemption Price

and thereafter at a redemption price equal to ___% of the principal amount, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed]
      together[, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) foregoing,] with accrued interest (except if the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the redemption date, but interest installments on Registered Securities that are due on or prior to such
      redemption date will be payable to the holders of such Securities of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof.  [Partial redemptions must be in an amount not less than [$]_______ principal amount of
      Securities]].*

[(b)  As and for a sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities, the Issuer will, until all Securities are paid or payment thereof provided for,
      deposit with the Fiscal Agent, prior to ____________ in each year, commencing in ___________ and ending in ___________, an amount in cash sufficient to redeem on such ____________ [not less than [$]_________ and not more than] [$]__________ principal
      amount of Securities at the redemption price specified above for redemption through operation of the sinking fund.  [The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment as specified in this Paragraph is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund
      payment”, and any payment in excess of such minimum amount is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”.]  The cash amount of any [mandatory] sinking fund payment is subject to reduction as provided below.  Each sinking fund payment
      shall be applied to the redemption of Securities on such _____________ as herein provided.  [The right to redeem Securities through optional sinking fund payments shall not be cumulative and to the extent not availed of on any sinking fund redemption
      date will terminate.  The Issuer (i) may deliver outstanding Securities (other than any previously called for redemption) and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities which have been redeemed otherwise than through the application of [mandatory] sinking
      fund payments, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any [mandatory] sinking fund payment and the amount of such [mandatory] sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.]

 
                *

                Modification necessary if the Security is an Original Issue Discount Security.

[(c)  In the case of any partial redemption of Securities, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Fiscal Agent not more than 60 nor less
      than ten calendar days prior to the redemption date from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption by such usual method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption
      of portions (equal to [$]           or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Registered Securities of a denomination larger than [$]         .]

[(d)  If notice of redemption has been given in the manner set forth in Paragraph [7], the Securities so to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the
      redemption date specified in such notice and upon presentation and surrender of the Securities at the place or places specified in such notice, the Securities shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the places and in the manner herein specified
      and at the redemption price herein specified [together with accrued interest (unless the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the redemption date].  From and after the redemption date, if monies for the redemption of Securities called for
      redemption shall have been made available at the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent for redemption on the redemption date, the Securities called for redemption shall cease to bear interest, and the only right of the holders of such Securities
      shall be to receive payment of the redemption price [together with accrued interest (unless the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the redemption date] as aforesaid.  If monies for the redemption of the Securities are not made available
      for payment until after the redemption date, the Securities called for redemption shall not cease to bear interest until such monies have been so made available.

[(e)  Any Registered Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered with, if the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent so requires, due endorsement
      by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent duly executed by, the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and
      deliver to the registered holder of such Security without service charge, a new Registered Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
      portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.]

[7.]  All notices to the holders of Securities shall be mailed to them by first-class mail or (if posted to an address overseas) by airmail to the holders
      (or the first of any joint named holders) at their respective addresses appearing on the register of securities.  In addition, if and for so long as any of the Securities are listed on one or more stock exchanges and the rules and regulations of such
      stock exchange(s) so require, such notices shall also be published in such manner as the rules and regulations of such stock exchange(s) may require.  Any notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of its publication or, if published more
      than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made.  Notices given by first-class mail or airmail, postage paid, shall be deemed to have been given five calendar days after mailing whether or not the addressee receives it. 
      Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of a Security shall affect the sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Securities.  [In the case of a redemption in whole or in part, notice will
      be given once not more than 60 calendar days nor less than ten calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption.]  [Notices to redeem Securities shall specify the date fixed for redemption, the applicable redemption price, the place or places of
      payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Securities to be redeemed [(or portion thereof in the case of a partial redemption of a Registered Security)], that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption (unless
      such date is an Interest Payment Date) will be paid as specified in said notice,* and that on and after such date interest thereon will cease to accrue [and that such
      redemption is for the sinking fund if such is the case].]  [In addition, in the case of a partial redemption, the redemption notice shall specify the last date on which exchanges or registration of transfers of Securities may be made, and shall also
      specify the Securities called for redemption and the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to remain outstanding after the redemption.]

 
                  *

                  Modification necessary if zero-coupon security.

[8.]  If (a) the Issuer shall default in any payment of the principal of [or the premium, if any, on] [or interest on] any of the Securities of this series
      and such default shall not be cured by payment thereof within 30 days, or (b) the Issuer shall default in the performance of any other covenant under any of the Securities of this series and such default shall continue for a period of 90 days after
      written notice thereof shall have been given to the Issuer at 00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx
      Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of all the Securities of this series at the time outstanding, or (c) a default, as defined in any instrument
      evidencing, securing or protecting any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Issuer, now or hereafter outstanding and maturing more than one year from the date of its creation, shall happen and the maturity of such indebtedness shall have been
      accelerated so that the same shall have become due and payable prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have become due and payable and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled, then, in any such case, the principal of
      all the Securities of this series then outstanding (if not already due) may be declared to be due and payable immediately by written notice given to the Issuer at 00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
      Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than a majority in principal
      amount of all the Securities of this series at the time outstanding.  If, at any time after the principal of all the Securities of this series shall have been so declared due and payable and before any judgment or decree for the payment of amounts
      due thereon shall have been entered, all arrears of interest upon all the Securities of this series and all other sums due in respect thereof, except any principal payments which shall not have matured by their terms, shall have been duly paid by the
      Issuer and all other defaults under the Securities of this series shall have been made good, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all the Securities of this series then outstanding, by written notice given to the Issuer at
      00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency
      & Trust Services, may rescind such declaration, but no such rescission shall impair any right consequent on any subsequent default.

[[ ].  Add any other particular covenants relating to the Securities of this series.]

[9.]  If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Fiscal Agent, the Issuer shall execute, and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver in
      exchange therefor, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there be delivered to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (b) such
      security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer
      shall execute, and upon its request the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Paragraph [9], the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp or other tax or
      other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and the expenses of the Fiscal Agent) connected therewith.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Paragraph in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual
      obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

Any new Security delivered pursuant to this Paragraph shall be so dated that neither gain nor loss in interest shall result from such exchange.

The provisions of this Paragraph [9] are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement
      or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

[10.]  (i) At any meeting of holders of Securities of this series duly called and held, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority
      in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series represented at such meeting or (ii) with the written consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series then outstanding,
      the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Securities of this series or, insofar as it affects the Securities of this series, the Fiscal Agency Agreement in any way, and the holders of the
      Securities of this series may make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given by holders of the Securities of this series; provided,
      however, that no such action may, without the consent of the holder of each Security of the series affected thereby, (A) change the due date for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any installment of interest on any
      Security of this series, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Security of this series, the portion of such principal amount which is payable upon acceleration of the maturity of such Security, the interest rate thereon or the premium payable upon
      redemption thereof, (C) change the coin or currency in which (unless required by law of the jurisdiction which issued such coin or currency) or the required places at which payment with respect to interest, premium or principal in respect of
      Securities of this series is payable, (D) shorten the period during which the Issuer is not permitted to redeem the Securities of this series, or permit the Issuer to redeem the Securities of this series if, prior to such action, the Issuer is not
      permitted to do so, or (E) reduce the proportion of the principal amount of Securities of this series the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the terms and conditions of
      the Securities of this series or to make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the
      Fiscal Agent may, without the vote or consent of any holder of Securities, amend the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Securities of this series for the purpose of (v) adding to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the holders of the
      Securities, (w) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, (x) securing the Securities pursuant to the requirements of the Securities or otherwise, (y) curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective
      provision thereof, or (z) amending the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Securities of this series in any manner that the Issuer reasonably determines is not inconsistent with the Securities of this series in any material respect and does not adversely
      affect the interests of any holder of Securities of this series in any material respect.

[11.]  No reference herein to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and no provision of this Security or of the Fiscal Agency Agreement shall alter or impair the
      obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

[12.]  This Security shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, except with respect to its authorization

European Investment Bank (herein called the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to bearer the principal sum of                      
      [Currency] (          ) on           (the “Stated Maturity”).

[If the Security is to bear interest prior to maturity, insert‑‑, and to pay interest thereon from the date hereof [annually] [semi-annually] in
      arrear on       [and       ] in each year ([each] an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing             , at the rate [of    % per annum] [to be determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth], until
      the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment [if applicable, insert‑‑, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the rate of     % per annum on any overdue principal [and
      premium] and on any overdue installment of interest].  In respect of all currencies other than EURO, interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360‑day year, consisting of twelve 30‑day months (unadjusted).  In the case of EURO, interest will be
      calculated on the basis of the number of days elapsed divided by 360 and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest amount of the relevant currency (with halves being rounded upwards).

[Insert floating interest rate provisions, if applicable.]

[If the Security is not to bear interest prior to maturity, insert‑‑The principal of this Security shall not bear interest except in the case of a
      default in payment of principal upon acceleration, upon redemption or at Stated Maturity and in such case the overdue principal of this Security shall bear interest at the rate of    % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such
      interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for.  Interest on any overdue principal shall be payable on demand.  Any such
      interest on any overdue principal that is not so paid on demand shall bear interest at the rate of    % per annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such demand
      for payment to the date payment of such interest has been made or duly provided for, and such interest shall also be payable on demand.]

Subject to applicable laws and regulations, principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] this Security shall be payable against presentation and surrender of
      this Security at the offices of the Paying Agents named on the reverse hereof** and at such other offices or agencies as the Issuer shall have appointed for the purpose
      pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to and given notice of to the holders of the Securities.  [Interest on this Security due on or before maturity shall be payable, subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer
      to an account denominated in the currency in which payment is due or by check drawn in that currency to the bearer of each Coupon (as defined on the reverse hereof) appertaining hereto in the amount set forth in such Coupon, on or after the due date
      for such payment as set forth in such Coupon, upon presentation and surrender thereof at the offices of the Paying Agents set forth on the reverse of such Coupon or at such other offices or agencies as the Issuer shall have appointed for the purpose
      pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to and given notice of to the holders of the Securities.]  No payment of principal [(or premium, if any)] [or interest] in respect of this Security shall be made at an office or agency of
      the Issuer in the United States (as defined hereinafter), and no check in payment thereof which is mailed shall be mailed to an address in the United States, nor shall any wire or other transfer made in lieu of payment by check be made to an account
      maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States.  As used herein, “United States” means the United States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia), and its possessions, including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands,
      Guam, American Samoa, Wake Island and the Northern Mariana Islands.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such payments may be made at an office or agency located in the United States if such payments are to be made in U.S. dollars and if payment of the
      full amount so payable at each office of the Fiscal Agent and of each Paying Agent outside the United States appointed and maintained pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement hereinafter referred to is illegal or effectively precluded because of the
      imposition of exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the full payment or receipt of such amount in U.S. dollars.  The Issuer covenants that until this Security has been delivered to the Fiscal Agent for cancelation, or monies sufficient
      to pay the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security have been made available for payment and either paid or returned to the Issuer as provided herein, it will at all times maintain offices or agencies in [The City of
      New York] [and in Europe (which, so long as the Securities are listed on [the __________ Stock Exchange] and such Exchange shall so require, shall include an office or agency in [insert‑‑name of city])] for the payment of the principal of
      [(and premium, if any, on)] [and interest on] this Security as herein provided.

      
                  **

                  Each such office is to be outside the United States, as defined herein.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have
      the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Fiscal Agent by manual signature, neither this Security nor any Coupon appertaining
      hereto shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

[Form of Reverse of Security]

Terms and Conditions of the Securities

1.  This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or
          more series in accordance with a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020 (herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), between the Issuer and Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as Fiscal Agent (herein called the “Fiscal Agent”, which
          term includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement).  To the extent not otherwise set forth in this Security, reference is hereby made to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the respective rights, duties,
          obligations, immunities and limitations of rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and the holders of Securities.  Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and this Security are on file and available for inspection at the Agency &
          Trust Services of the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, during business hours on any business day and, so long as the Securities are listed on [the __________ Stock Exchange] and such
          Exchange shall so require, at the office of the Paying Agent hereinafter named in [insert‑‑name of city].  This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof[, limited in aggregate principal amount to [$]         ].

The Securities constitute unconditional, direct and general obligations of the Issuer in accordance with the terms for their payment and performance. 
          The Securities shall rank pari passu with any present or future indebtedness of the Issuer represented by any unsubordinated and unsecured notes or bonds.

2.  The Securities are issuable in bearer form (the “Bearer Securities”) with coupons (the “Coupons”)* at the time of issue attached thereto for the amount due on each Interest Payment Date and in fully registered form (the “Registered Securities”), both of which rank pari passu without any
          discrimination, preference or priority among them whatsoever.  Bearer Securities are issuable in [the] authorized denomination[s] of [$]        [and [$]        ], and Registered Securities are issuable in [the] authorized
          denomination[s] of           [and [any integral multiple thereof] [integral multiples of [$]          above that amount]].

                        *

                        Reference to coupons should be deleted as appropriate for non-interest-bearing Securities of a series.
                      
3.  The Issuer shall maintain in [The City of New York] [London], an office or agency where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer
          or exchange.  The Issuer has initially appointed the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent as its agent in [The City of New York] [London] for such purpose and has agreed to cause to be kept at such office a register in which, subject to such
          reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer will provide for the registration of Registered Securities and registration of transfers of Registered Securities.  In addition, the Issuer has appointed the main offices of              
          in              and              in             as additional agencies (each a “Transfer Agent”) where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange.  The Issuer reserves the right to vary or
          terminate the appointment of the Fiscal Agent as security registrar or of any Transfer Agent or to appoint additional or other registrars or Transfer Agents or to approve any change in the office through which any security registrar or any
          Transfer Agent acts, provided that there will at all times be a security registrar in [The City of New York] [London] (in the event that Securities are issued in registered form), and a Transfer Agent in a European city.

At the option of the bearer hereof upon request confirmed in writing, Bearer Securities may be exchanged for Registered Securities, of any authorized
          denominations and of a like principal amount, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged, together with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto, at the office of any Transfer Agent or at the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal
          Agent.  If the bearer hereof is unable to produce any such unmatured Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in
          funds acceptable to the Issuer in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing Coupon or Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent if there be furnished to them such
          security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and each other agent of the Issuer hereunder harmless.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Bearer Security is surrendered in exchange for a Registered Security (a) after the close of
          business on the           * [or           *] next preceding an Interest Payment Date and before the opening of business on such Interest Payment
          Date, or (b) after the close of business on any special record date for the payment of defaulted interest and before the opening of business on the relevant proposed date of payment of such defaulted interest, such Bearer Security shall be
          surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Interest Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be, and the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date of payment shall not be payable in respect of the
          Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but will be payable only to the holder of such Coupon upon presentation and surrendered thereof when due.  Bearer Securities may not be issued in exchange for Registered Securities.

                      *

                      Insert Record Dates in respect of Registered Securities.

[In the event of a redemption of the Securities in part, the Issuer shall not be required (a) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security
          during a period beginning at the opening of business ten business days before, and continuing until, the date notice is given identifying the Securities to be redeemed, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security, or
          portion thereof, called for redemption, or (c) to exchange any Bearer Security called for redemption, except for a Registered Security of like aggregate principal amount which is simultaneously surrendered for redemption.]

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt,
          and entitled to the same benefits, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.  No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient
          to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than an exchange in connection with a partial redemption of a Security not involving any registration of a transfer.

Title to Bearer Securities and Coupons shall pass by delivery.  The Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent may deem
          and treat the bearer of a Bearer Security, the bearer of a Coupon and the person in whose name a Registered Security is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such Security or Coupon be overdue, and neither the Issuer
          nor the Fiscal Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

4.  (a)  The Issuer shall pay to the Fiscal Agent at its principal office in the City of London, on or prior to [each Interest Payment Date][,] [any
          redemption date] [and] the Stated Maturity of the Securities, such amounts as are sufficient (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to pay the [interest on][,] [the redemption price of and accrued interest
          (if the redemption date is not an Interest Payment Date) on, and] the principal of the Securities due and payable on such [Interest Payment Date][,] [redemption date] [or] [at] Stated Maturity[, as the case may be].  The Fiscal Agent shall apply
          the amounts so paid to it to the payment of such [interest][,] [redemption price] [and] principal in accordance with the terms of the Securities.  Any monies paid by the Issuer to the Fiscal or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of
          [(or premium, if any, on)] [or interest on] any Securities and remaining unclaimed at the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal [(or premium, if any)] [or interest] shall have become due and payable (whether at
          maturity, upon call for redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal and any Paying Agent with
          respect thereto shall cease.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] such Securities shall terminate at the end of ten years after such principal [(or premium, if any)] shall have become due
          and payable.  [Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay any interest on such Securities shall terminate at the end of five years after such interest shall have become due and payable.]

(b)  In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal of [(and premium, if any, on)] [or interest on] any Security [or the date fixed for
          redemption of any Security] shall be a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in any place of payment or in the place that is the financial center for the currency of payment, then payment of principal [(and
          premium)] [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 that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in such
          place of payment or the financial center for the currency of payment, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment [or the date fixed for redemption], and no additional interest shall accrue for the period after such
          date.

4

5.  Payment of the principal of [and premium, if any, on] and interest on this Security shall be subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and
          regulations applicable thereto.  Consequently, neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent will make any additional payment in the event of a withholding tax being required in respect of any payment under or in connection with this Security.  Neither
          the Issuer nor any Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Security or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from such payments or any currency conversion or rounding effected in
          connection therewith.

[6.  (a)  [If applicable, insert‑‑The Securities are subject to redemption upon not more than 60 nor less than ten calendar days’ notice given as
          hereinafter provided, [if applicable, insert‑‑(i) on _______ in any year, commencing with the year ____ and ending with the year ____, through operation of the sinking fund for this series at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
          principal amount, and (ii) ][at any time [on or after _______], as a whole or in part, at the election of the Issuer, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed):  If

          together[, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) foregoing,] with accrued interest (except if the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the redemption date [, but interest installments on Registered Securities that are due on or prior to
          such redemption date will be payable to the holders of such Securities of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to above].]  [Partial redemptions must be in an amount not less than [$]__________ principal amount of
          Securities]].*

[(b)  As and for a sinking fund for the retirement of the Securities, the Issuer will, until all Securities are paid or payment thereof provided for,
          deposit with the Fiscal Agent, prior to ________ in each year, commencing in ________ and ending in _______, an amount in cash sufficient to redeem on such _______ [not less than [$]_______ and not more than] [$]___________ principal amount of
          Securities at the redemption price specified above for redemption through operation of the sinking fund.  [The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment as specified in this Paragraph is herein referred to as a “mandatory sinking fund payment”,
          and any payment in excess of such minimum amount is herein referred to as an “optional sinking fund payment”.]  The cash amount of any [mandatory] sinking fund payment is subject to reduction as provided below.  Each sinking fund payment shall be
          applied to the redemption of Securities on such _______ as herein provided.  [The right to redeem Securities through optional sinking fund payments shall not be cumulative and to the extent not availed of on any sinking fund redemption date will
          terminate.  The Issuer (i) may deliver outstanding Securities (other than any previously called for redemption) together, in the case of Bearer Securities, with all unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto and (ii) may apply as a credit Securities
          which have been redeemed otherwise than through the application of [mandatory] sinking fund payments, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any [mandatory] sinking fund payment and the amount of such [mandatory] sinking fund payment
          shall be reduced accordingly.]

                      *

                      Modification necessary if the Security is an Original Issue Discount Security.

[(c)  In the case of any partial redemption of Securities, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Fiscal Agent individually by lot not
          more than 60 nor less than ten calendar days prior to the redemption date from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, and, in the case of Registered Securities, by such usual method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair
          and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to [$]_____ or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Registered Securities of a denomination larger than [$]_____.]

[(d)  If notice of redemption has been given in the manner set forth in Paragraph [7], the Securities so to be redeemed shall become due and payable on
          the redemption date specified in such notice and upon presentation and surrender of the Securities at the place or places specified in such notice, together with all appurtenant Coupons, if any, maturing subsequent to the redemption date, the
          Securities shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the places and in the manner herein specified and at the redemption price herein specified [together with accrued interest (unless the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the
          redemption date; provided, however, that interest due on or prior to the redemption date on this Security shall be payable only upon the presentment and surrender of Coupons for such interest (at an office or agency outside the
          United States except as otherwise provided on the face of this Security)].  If any Bearer Security surrendered for redemption shall not be accompanied by all appurtenant Coupons maturing after the redemption date, such Security may be paid after
          deducting from the amount otherwise payable an amount equal to the face amount of all such missing Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent if they are furnished with such
          security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and each other Paying agent of the Issuer harmless.  From and after the redemption date, if monies for the redemption of Securities called for redemption shall have been made
          available at the [appropriate office] of the Fiscal Agent for redemption on the redemption date, the Securities called for redemption shall cease to bear interest, the Coupons appertaining to Bearer Securities maturing subsequent to the
          redemption date shall be void, and the only right of the holders of such Securities shall be to receive payment of the redemption price [together with accrued interest (unless the redemption date is an Interest Payment Date) to the redemption
          date] as aforesaid.  If monies for the redemption of the Securities are not made available for payment until after the redemption date, the Securities called for redemption shall not cease to bear interest until such monies have been so made
          available.]

7

[7.]  All notices to the holders of Securities shall be published in an English language newspaper having a general circulation in London, United
          Kingdom (expected to be the Financial Times) and in New York City (expected to be The Wall Street Journal).  If at any time publication in any such newspaper is
          not practicable, notices will be valid if published in an English language newspaper with general circulation in the respective market regions as determined by the Issuer.  In addition, if and for so long as any of the Securities are listed on
          one or more stock exchanges and the rules and regulations of such stock exchange(s) so require, such notices shall also be published in such manner as the rules and regulations of such stock exchange(s) may require.  Any notice shall be deemed to
          have been given on the date of its publication or, if published more than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made.  Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of
          a Security shall affect the sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Securities.  [In the case of a redemption in whole or in part, notice will be given once not more than 60 calendar days nor less than ten calendar days prior to the date
          fixed for redemption.]  [Notices to redeem Securities shall specify the date fixed for redemption, the applicable redemption price, the place or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Securities to be
          redeemed, together with all appurtenant Coupons, if any, maturing subsequent to the date fixed for redemption, that interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption (unless such date is an Interest Payment Date) will be paid as specified in said
          notice,* and that on and after such date interest thereon will cease to accrue [and that such redemption is for the sinking fund if such is the case].]  [In
          addition, in the case of a partial redemption, the redemption notice shall specify the last date on which exchanges or registration of transfers of Securities may be made, and shall also specify the Securities called for redemption and the
          aggregate principal amount of the Securities to remain outstanding after the redemption.]

                        *

                        Modification necessary if zero-coupon security.

[8.]  If (a) the Issuer shall default in any payment of the principal of [or the premium, if any, on] [or interest on] any of the Securities of this series and such default shall not be cured by payment thereof within 30 days, or (b) the
            Issuer shall default in the performance of any other covenant under any of the Securities of this series and such default shall continue for a period of 90 days after written notice thereof shall have been given to the Issuer at 00-000,
            xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency

          and the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with coupons corresponding to the coupons, if any, appertaining to
          the surrendered Security.

If there be delivered to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent (a) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,  loss or theft of any Security or

Every new Security with its Coupons, if any, issued pursuant to this Paragraph [9] in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security, or in exchange for
          a Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security and its Coupons, if any, or the destroyed, lost
          or stolen Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

The provisions of this Paragraph [9] are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the

          outstanding, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Securities of this series or, insofar as it affects the Securities of this series, the Fiscal Agency Agreement in any way, and the
          holders of the Securities of this series may make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given by holders of the Securities of this
          series; provided, however, that no such action may, without the consent of the holder of each Security of the series affected thereby, (A) change the due date for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any
          installment of interest on any Security of this series, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Security of this series, the portion of such principal amount which is payable upon acceleration of the maturity of such Security, the interest rate
          thereon or the premium payable upon redemption thereof, (C) change the coin or currency in which (unless required by law of the jurisdiction which issued such coin or currency) or the required places at which payment with respect to interest,
          premium or principal in respect of Securities of this series is payable, (D) shorten the period during which the Issuer is not permitted to redeem the Securities of this series, or permit the Issuer to redeem the Securities of this series if,
          prior to such action, the Issuer is not permitted to do so, or (E) reduce the proportion of the principal amount of Securities of this series the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal
          Agency Agreement or the terms and conditions of the Securities of this series or to make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given. 
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, without the vote or consent of any holder of Securities, amend the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Securities of this series for the purpose of (v) adding to the covenants of the
          Issuer for the benefit of the holders of the Securities, (w) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Issuer, (x) securing the Securities pursuant to the requirements of the Securities or otherwise, (y) curing any ambiguity, or curing,

          set forth], until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment [if applicable, insert‑‑, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the rate of ___% per annum on any overdue
          principal [and premium] and on any overdue installment of interest]; provided, however, that interest on this temporary bearer global Security shall be payable only after the issuance of the definitive Securities for which this
          temporary bearer global Security is exchangeable and, in the case of definitive bearer Securities, only upon presentation and surrender (at an office or agency outside the United States, except as otherwise provided in the Fiscal Agency Agreement
          referred to below) of the interest coupons thereto attached as they severally mature.  Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360‑day year, consisting of twelve 30‑day months (unadjusted).]

[Insert floating interest rate provisions, if applicable.]

          interest except in the case of a default in payment of principal upon acceleration, upon redemption or at Stated Maturity and in such case the overdue principal of this temporary bearer global Security shall bear interest at the rate of ___% per
          annum (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), which shall accrue from the date of such default in payment to the date payment of such principal has been made or duly provided for.  Interest on any overdue

          institutions].  Definitive bearer Securities and definitive bearer global Security shall be delivered only outside the United States.  Upon any exchange of a part of this temporary bearer global Security for definitive Securities, the portion of
          the principal amount thereof so exchanged shall be endorsed by the Fiscal Agent on the Schedule hereto, and the principal amount hereof shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so exchanged.

Until exchanged in full for definitive Securities, this temporary bearer global Security shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and
          subject to the same terms and conditions of, and the Issuer shall be subject to the same restrictions as those to be enforced on, the definitive Securities and those contained in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, except that neither the holder hereof
          nor the beneficial owners of this temporary bearer global Security shall be entitled to receive payment of interest hereon.

          Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, Wake Island and the Northern Mariana Islands.

          to its authorization and execution by the Issuer, which shall be governed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “TFEU”), and the Statute of the Issuer, as amended and
          supplemented from time to time, which is annexed to the TFEU as Protocol (No 5) on the Statute of the European Investment Bank.

All terms used in this temporary bearer global Security that are defined in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, including the exhibits thereto, or the
          definitive Securities shall have the meanings assigned to them therein.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Fiscal Agent by manual signature, this temporary bearer global Security shall
          not be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this temporary bearer global
            Security to be duly executed.

Terms and Conditions of the Notes

1.  This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more
          series in accordance with a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020 (herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), between the Issuer and Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as Fiscal Agent (herein called the “Fiscal Agent”, which term
          includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement).  To the extent not otherwise set forth in this Note, reference is hereby made to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the respective rights, duties, obligations,
          immunities and limitations of rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and the holders of the Notes.  Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and this Note are on file and available for inspection at the Agency & Trust Services of the
          Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, during business hours on any business day.

The Notes constitute unconditional, direct and general obligations of the Issuer in accordance with the terms for their payment and performance.  The
          Notes shall rank pari passu with any present or future indebtedness of the Issuer represented by any unsubordinated and unsecured notes or bonds.

2.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes is U.S. $[    ].  The Notes are issuable in authorized denominations of U.S. $            and any
          integral multiple thereof.

3. (a)  The Issuer shall pay to the Fiscal Agent, on or prior to each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date (subject to (b) below), such amounts
          as are sufficient (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to pay the interest on, and the principal of, the Notes due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, or Maturity Date, as the case may be.  The
          principal of and interest on the Notes will be paid in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.  The Fiscal Agent shall apply the amounts so paid to it to
          the payment of such interest and principal in accordance with the terms of the Notes.  Any monies paid by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Notes and remaining unclaimed at
          the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal or interest shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity, upon call for redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to
          the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect thereto shall cease.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of such Notes shall
          terminate at the end of ten years after such principal shall have become due and payable.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay any interest on such Notes shall terminate at the end of five years after such interest shall have become
          due and payable.

(b)  In any case where the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date shall be a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to
          close in any place of payment or in the place that is the financial center for the currency of payment, then payment of 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 that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in such place of payment or the financial center for the currency of payment, with the same force and effect as if made on the
          Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, and no additional interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

4.  Payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes made at the offices of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent shall be subject in all cases to
          any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.  Consequently, neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent will make any additional payment in the event of a withholding tax being required in respect of any payment under or in connection
          with the Notes.  Neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of the Notes or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from such payments.

5.  All notices to the holders of the Notes shall be published in an English language newspaper having a general circulation in London, United Kingdom
          (expected to be the Financial Times) and in New York City (expected to be The Wall Street Journal); provided that for so long as the Notes are represented
          by this Global Note, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notice by the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent to the relevant securities clearing system for communication by each of them to entitled participants in substitution for publication
          in any such newspaper.  If at any time publication in any such newspaper is not practicable, notices will be valid if published in an English language newspaper with general circulation in the respective market regions as determined by the
          Issuer.  In addition, if and for so long as any of the Notes are listed on one or more stock exchanges and the rules and regulations of such stock exchange(s) so require, such notices shall also be published in such manner as the rules and
          regulations of such stock exchange(s) may require.  Any notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of its publication or, if published more than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made.  Notices
          delivered to the relevant securities clearing system shall be deemed to have been given on the date when delivered.  Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of a Note shall affect the
          sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Notes.

2

6.  If (a) the Issuer shall default in any payment of the principal of (or the premium, if any, on) or interest on any of the Notes of this series and
          such default shall not be cured by payment thereof within 30 days, or (b) the Issuer shall default in the performance of any other covenant under any of the Notes of this series and such default shall continue for a period of 90 days after
          written notice thereof shall have been given to the Issuer at 00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square,
          Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of all the Notes of this series at the time outstanding, or (c) a default, as defined in any
          instrument evidencing, securing or protecting any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Issuer, now or hereafter outstanding and maturing more than one year from the date of its creation, shall happen and the maturity of such indebtedness shall
          have been accelerated so that the same shall have become due and payable prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have become due and payable and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled, then, in any such case, the
          principal of all the Notes of this series then outstanding (if not already due) may be declared to be due and payable immediately by written notice given to the Issuer at 00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of
          Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than a majority in
          principal amount of all the Notes of this series at the time outstanding.  If, at any time after the principal of all the Notes of this series shall have been so declared due and payable and before any judgment or decree for the payment of
          amounts due thereon shall have been entered, all arrears of interest upon all the Notes of this series and all other sums due in respect thereof, except any principal payments which shall not have matured by their terms, shall have been duly paid
          by the Issuer and all other defaults under the Notes of this series shall have been made good, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all the Notes of this series then outstanding, by written notice given to the Issuer at
          00-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of
          Agency & Trust Services, may rescind such declaration, but no such rescission shall impair any right consequent on any subsequent default.

3

7.  (i) At any meeting of holders of Notes of this series duly called and held, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority in
          aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series represented at such meeting or (ii) with the written consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series then outstanding, the Issuer
          and the Fiscal Agent may modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Notes of this series or, insofar as it affects the Notes of this series, the Fiscal Agency Agreement in any way, and the holders of the Notes of this series may
          make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given by holders of the Notes of this series; provided, however, that no
          such action may, without the consent of the holder of each Note of the series affected thereby, (A) change the due date for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any installment of interest on any Note of this series, (B) reduce
          the principal amount of any Note of this series, the portion of such principal amount which is payable upon acceleration of the maturity of such Note, the interest rate thereon or the premium payable upon redemption thereof, (C) change the coin
          or currency in which (unless required by law of the jurisdiction which issued such coin or currency) or the required places at which payment with respect to interest, premium or principal in respect of Notes of this series is payable, (D) shorten
          the period during which the Issuer is not permitted to redeem the Notes of this series, or permit the Issuer to redeem the Notes of this series if, prior to such action, the Issuer is not permitted to do so, or (E) reduce the proportion of the
          principal amount of Notes of this series the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the terms and conditions of the Notes of this series or to make, take or give any
          request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, without the vote or consent of any
          holder of Notes, amend the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes of this series for the purpose of (v) adding to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, (w) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the
          Issuer, (x) securing the Notes pursuant to the requirements of the Notes or otherwise, (y) curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision thereof, or (z) amending the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes of
          this series in any manner that the Issuer reasonably determines is not inconsistent with the Notes of this series in any material respect and does not adversely affect the interests of any holder of Notes of this series in any material respect.

8.  No reference herein to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and no provision of this Note or of the Fiscal Agency Agreement shall alter or impair the
          obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

9.  This Note shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, except with respect to its authorization and
          execution by the Issuer, which shall be governed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “TFEU”), and the Statute of the Issuer, as amended and supplemented from time to time,
          which is annexed to the TFEU as Protocol (No 5) on the Statute of the European Investment Bank.

10.  As more fully set forth in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Issuer has (a) expressly accepted
            the jurisdiction of any State or Federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in respect of any action arising out of or based upon the Notes or the Fiscal Agency Agreement which may be instituted in any such court by the
            holder of a Note and (b) appointed the Ambassador of the European Union to the United States, with address at Delegation of the European Union to the United States, 0000 X

              such action; provided, however, that such acceptance of
              jurisdiction and such appointment shall not extend to actions brought under United States Federal securities laws or any state securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action arising out
              of or based upon the Notes or the Fiscal Agency Agreement may be instituted by the holder of a Note in any competent court of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer has its seat.

The Issuer has waived against such holder and any previous holder of the [European] Global Note all rights of set-off or counterclaim which would or

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Global Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
          have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

[Form of Reverse of Global Note]

Terms and Conditions of the Notes

1.  This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more
          series in accordance with a Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020 (herein called the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), between the Issuer and Citibank, N.A., London Branch, as Fiscal Agent (herein called the “Fiscal Agent”, which term
          includes any successor fiscal agent under the Fiscal Agency Agreement).  To the extent not otherwise set forth in this Note, reference is hereby made to the Fiscal Agency Agreement for a statement of the respective rights, duties, obligations,
          immunities and limitations of rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent and the holders of the Notes.  Copies of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and this Note are on file and available for inspection at the Agency & Trust Services of the
          Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Caxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, during business hours on any business day.

The Notes constitute unconditional, direct and general obligations of the Issuer in accordance with the terms for their payment and performance.  The
          Notes shall rank pari passu with any present or future indebtedness of the Issuer represented by any unsubordinated and unsecured notes or bonds.

2.  The aggregate principal amount of the Notes is U.S. $[    ].  The Notes are issuable in authorized denominations of U.S. $            and any
          integral multiple thereof.

3. (a)  The Issuer shall pay to the Fiscal Agent, on or prior to each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date (subject to (b) below), such amounts
          as are sufficient (with any amounts then held by the Fiscal Agent and available for the purpose) to pay the interest on, and the principal of, the Notes due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, or Maturity Date, as the case may be.  The
          principal of and interest on the Notes will be paid in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.  The Fiscal Agent shall apply the amounts so paid to it to
          the payment of such interest and principal in accordance with the terms of the Notes.  Any monies paid by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Notes and remaining unclaimed at
          the end of ten years or five years, respectively, after such principal or interest shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity, upon call for redemption or otherwise) shall then, together with any interest earned thereon, be repaid to
          the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable, and upon such repayment all liability of the Fiscal Agent and any Paying Agent with respect thereto shall cease.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of such Notes shall
          terminate at the end of ten years after such principal shall have become due and payable.  Any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay any interest on such Notes shall terminate at the end of five years after such interest shall have become
          due and payable.

(b)  In any case where the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date shall be a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to
          close in any place of payment or in the place that is the financial center for the currency of payment, then payment of 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 that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law to close in such place of payment or the financial center for the currency of payment, with the same force and effect as if made on the
          Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, and no additional interest shall accrue for the period after such date. 

4.  Payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes made at the offices of the Fiscal Agent or any Paying Agent shall be subject in all cases to
          any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.  Consequently, neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent will make any additional payment in the event of a withholding tax being required in respect of any payment under or in connection
          with the Notes.  Neither the Issuer nor any Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of the Notes or other person for any commissions, costs, losses or expenses in relation to or resulting from such payments.

5.  All notices to the holders of the Notes shall be published in an English language newspaper having a general circulation in London, United Kingdom
          (expected to be the Financial Times) and in New York City (expected to be The Wall Street Journal); provided that for so long as the Notes are represented
          by this Global Note, notices may be given by delivery of the relevant notice by the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent to the relevant securities clearing system for communication by each of them to entitled participants in substitution for publication
          in any such newspaper.  If at any time publication in any such newspaper is not practicable, notices will be valid if published in an English language newspaper with general circulation in the respective market regions as determined by the
          Issuer.  In addition, if and for so long as any of the Notes are listed on one or more stock exchanges and the rules and regulations of such stock exchange(s) so require, such notices shall also be published in such manner as the rules and
          regulations of such stock exchange(s) may require.  Any notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of its publication or, if published more than once on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made.  Notices
          delivered to the relevant securities clearing system shall be deemed to have been given on the date when delivered.  Neither the failure to give notice nor any defect in any notice given to any particular holder of a Note shall affect the
          sufficiency of any notice with respect to other Notes.

2

6.  If (a) the Issuer shall default in any payment of the principal of (or the premium, if any, on) or interest on any of the Notes of this series and
          such default shall not be cured by payment thereof within 30 days, or (b) the Issuer shall default in the performance of any other covenant under any of the Notes of this series and such default shall continue for a period of 90 days after
          written notice thereof shall have been given to the Issuer at 98-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square,
          Caxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of all the Notes of this series at the time outstanding, or (c) a default, as defined in any
          instrument evidencing, securing or protecting any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Issuer, now or hereafter outstanding and maturing more than one year from the date of its creation, shall happen and the maturity of such indebtedness shall
          have been accelerated so that the same shall have become due and payable prior to the date on which the same would otherwise have become due and payable and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled, then, in any such case, the
          principal of all the Notes of this series then outstanding (if not already due) may be declared to be due and payable immediately by written notice given to the Issuer at 98-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of
          Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Caxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of Agency & Trust Services, by the holders of not less than a majority in
          principal amount of all the Notes of this series at the time outstanding.  If, at any time after the principal of all the Notes of this series shall have been so declared due and payable and before any judgment or decree for the payment of
          amounts due thereon shall have been entered, all arrears of interest upon all the Notes of this series and all other sums due in respect thereof, except any principal payments which shall not have matured by their terms, shall have been duly paid
          by the Issuer and all other defaults under the Notes of this series shall have been made good, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all the Notes of this series then outstanding, by written notice given to the Issuer at
          98-000, xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, L‑2950 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Attention of Capital Markets Department, and to the Fiscal Agent at Citigroup Centre, Canada Square, Caxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx X00 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Attention of
          Agency & Trust Services, may rescind such declaration, but no such rescission shall impair any right consequent on any subsequent default.

3

7.  (i) At any meeting of holders of Notes of this series duly called and held, upon the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority in
          aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series represented at such meeting or (ii) with the written consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series then outstanding, the Issuer
          and the Fiscal Agent may modify, amend or supplement the terms and conditions of the Notes of this series or, insofar as it affects the Notes of this series, the Fiscal Agency Agreement in any way, and the holders of the Notes of this series may
          make, take or give any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given by holders of the Notes of this series; provided, however, that no
          such action may, without the consent of the holder of each Note of the series affected thereby, (A) change the due date for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or any installment of interest on any Note of this series, (B) reduce
          the principal amount of any Note of this series, the portion of such principal amount which is payable upon acceleration of the maturity of such Note, the interest rate thereon or the premium payable upon redemption thereof, (C) change the coin
          or currency in which (unless required by law of the jurisdiction which issued such coin or currency) or the required places at which payment with respect to interest, premium or principal in respect of Notes of this series is payable, (D) shorten
          the period during which the Issuer is not permitted to redeem the Notes of this series, or permit the Issuer to redeem the Notes of this series if, prior to such action, the Issuer is not permitted to do so, or (E) reduce the proportion of the
          principal amount of Notes of this series the vote or consent of the holders of which is necessary to modify, amend or supplement the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the terms and conditions of the Notes of this series or to make, take or give any
          request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided hereby or thereby to be made, taken or given.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent may, without the vote or consent of any
          holder of Notes, amend the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes of this series for the purpose of (v) adding to the covenants of the Issuer for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, (w) surrendering any right or power conferred upon the
          Issuer, (x) securing the Notes pursuant to the requirements of the Notes or otherwise, (y) curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision thereof, or (z) amending the Fiscal Agency Agreement or the Notes of
          this series in any manner that the Issuer reasonably determines is not inconsistent with the Notes of this series in any material respect and does not adversely affect the interests of any holder of Notes of this series in any material respect.

8.  No reference herein to the Fiscal Agency Agreement and no provision of this Note or of the Fiscal Agency Agreement shall alter or impair the
          obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

9.  This Note shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, except with respect to its authorization and
          execution by the Issuer, which shall be governed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “TFEU”), and the Statute of the Issuer, as amended and supplemented from time to time,
          which is annexed to the TFEU as Protocol (No 5) on the Statute of the European Investment Bank.

              Note in any competent court of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer has its seat.
