The Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate equal to 1.15% per annum plus such rate so ascertained by the Issuer, provided that, if such London Business Day falls on or before the preceding Interest Rate Quotation Date, if any, the Rate of Interest shall be the Rate of Interest in effect for the last preceding Interest Period.

In these Conditions of Bonds, “Reference Bank” means a bank which provided its offered quotation used to calculate the offered rate for three-month yen deposits in the London interbank market which appeared on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the London Business Day most closely preceding the Interest Rate Quotation Date (or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page LIBOR01, or if Reuters Page LIBOR01 is unavailable on such date, on the most closely preceding London Business Day on which such rate appears) in respect of the relevant Interest Rate Determination Date.

(3)

The Issuer shall, at approximately 10:00 a.m. (Tokyo time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, calculate the interest amount per one (1) currency (as defined in the Business Rules) of the Bonds (the “Interest Amount Per One Currency”) for the relevant Interest Period. The Interest Amount Per One Currency shall be calculated, pursuant to the Business Rules, by multiplying the Rate of Interest by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the relevant Interest Period and the denominator of which is 360. The Interest Amount Per One Currency for a part of any Interest Period shall be calculated for the actual number of days included in such part on the basis of a 360-day year.

(4)	After the determination of the Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, the Issuer shall notify the Fiscal Agent in writing of such Rate of Interest and the relevant Interest Amount Per One

A1-6

Currency and Interest Payment Date, whereupon, in no later than five (5) Tokyo Business Days following the commencement of such Interest Period, the Fiscal Agent shall make such matters available for perusal by the Bondholders at the head office of the Fiscal Agent during normal business hours. In such case, public notices need not be given.

(5)

If, after giving notice of any Rate of Interest and the relevant Interest Amount Per One Currency and Interest Payment Date pursuant to sub-paragraph (4) above, the relevant Interest Period is lengthened or shortened, the Issuer shall promptly determine what adjustment is appropriate. As soon as practicable after the determination of such adjustment, the Issuer shall notify the Fiscal Agent in writing of the Interest Amount Per One Currency and the Interest Payment Date, whereupon, as soon as practicable after the date on which the Fiscal Agent receives such notice, the Fiscal Agent shall make such matters available for perusal by the Bondholders at the head office of the Fiscal Agent during normal business hours.

(6)	Any Rate of Interest, Interest Amount Per One Currency or Interest Payment Date determined in accordance with this Condition shall in the absence of manifest error be final and binding upon all parties, including the Bondholders.

(7)

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation acts as the Issuer’s reference agent (the “Reference Agent”) at its head office in Tokyo, Japan in respect of the Bonds. Pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Issuer shall entrust the Reference Agent with the performance of all of its obligations (other than those to give public notices) under this Condition relating to the ascertainment, calculation and determination of any offered quotation or interest rate (including, but not limited to, the Rate of Interest and the Interest Amount Per One Currency). The Reference Agent shall act solely as agent of the Issuer and shall assume no obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with the Bondholders. Any notice required to be given by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent under this Condition need not be given if and so long as the Fiscal Agent and the Reference Agent are one and the same bank. The Issuer may from time to time replace the Reference Agent, provided that the appointment of the Reference Agent shall continue until the replacement reference agent is duly appointed. In such case the Issuer shall give prior public notice thereof.

(8)

The Bonds shall cease to bear interest from but excluding the date on which they become due for redemption; provided, however, that should the Issuer fail to redeem any of the Bonds when due, then interest shall be paid for the actual number of days of the period from and including the due date for redemption of a Bond to but excluding the date of the actual redemption of such Bond, computed on the basis of a 360-day year at the interest rate for the Bonds (calculated as if the date being two London Business Days prior to the redemption date and subsequent January 8, April 8, July 8 and October 8 were the Interest Rate Quotation Date) specified in this Condition 5. Such period, however, shall not exceed the fourteenth (14th) day counting from the date on which a public notice has been given by the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent in accordance with the third paragraph of Condition 7. The Issuer shall notify the Fiscal Agent in writing of such interest rate in accordance with Condition 5(4) and the Fiscal Agent shall make such matters available for perusal by the Bondholders at the head office of the Fiscal Agent during normal business hours within five Tokyo Business Days from such date of redemption. In such case, public notices need not be given.

A1-7

6.	Redemption and Purchase

(1)

Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled or exchanged, the Bonds shall be redeemed on July 8, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”) at a price equal to their principal amount; provided that, if such date is not a Tokyo Business Day, the due date for redemption of the Bonds shall be postponed to the next succeeding Tokyo Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such due date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Tokyo Business Day.

(2) (I)

The Bonds may be redeemed, as a whole but not in part, at the option of the Issuer upon such prior notice of redemption (which notice shall be irrevocable) to the Bondholders as set forth below, at a price equal to their principal amount, together with any interest accrued to but excluding the date fixed for redemption, if, as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any amendment to or change in an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which amendment or change is effective after the date of issue of the Bonds, the Issuer will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts (as defined in Condition 8) pursuant to Condition 8 on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, (i) unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts can be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer, and (ii) provided that (x) no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than sixty (60) days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Bonds then due and (y) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect.

Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption to the Bondholders pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuer shall deliver to the Fiscal Agent a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer so to redeem have occurred and an opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the Issuer to such effect based on such statements of facts.

If the Issuer becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amount pursuant to Condition 8 and the Issuer is, in the opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing with respect to tax matters, prohibited by United States law from paying all or any part of such Additional Amount, the Issuer shall, as soon as practicable but not later than the fortieth (40th) day after (i) the occurrence of the events giving rise to the obligations of the Issuer to pay the Additional Amount or (ii) the date on which such United States law becomes effective, whichever is later, redeem the Bonds as a whole, but not in part, at a price equal to their principal amount, together with interest accrued to but excluding the date fixed for redemption (but subject to applicable United States law), upon giving notice to the Fiscal Agent in writing stating that the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amount and that it is prohibited by United States law from paying the same and stating in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise to such prohibition and setting forth the proposed redemption date. Such notice shall be accompanied by an opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing, stating to the effect that the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amount and that the Issuer is prohibited by United States law from paying the same. Upon making such payment of the principal amount and accrued interest (but exclusive of such Additional Amounts) as provided in this Condition 6(2)(I), the

A1-8

Issuer shall be discharged in full from any further obligation as to principal of or interest on the Bonds.

The certificate and the opinion given under this Condition 6(2)(I) shall be kept at the Head Office of the Fiscal Agent promptly after the Fiscal Agent receives them and up to the expiry of one month after the redemption date, and shall be made available for perusal or photocopying by any Bondholder during normal business hours. All expenses incurred for such photocopying shall be borne by the applicant therefor.

The Issuer shall give any notice to the Fiscal Agent pursuant to this Condition 6(2)(I) at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed redemption date and shall give public notice of such matters to the Bondholders at least fourteen (14) days prior to such redemption date.

(II)

In addition, if the Issuer determines that any payment made outside the United States by the Issuer or any paying agent of the full amount of principal or interest due with respect to any Bond would, under any present or future laws or regulations of the United States affecting taxation or otherwise, be subject to any certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement of any kind, the effect of which requirement is the disclosure to the Issuer, any paying agent or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence or identity of a beneficial owner of such Bond who is a non-U.S. person, as defined in Condition 8, the Issuer at its election may either (A) redeem the Bonds, as a whole but not in part, upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior redemption notice to the Bondholders, at a price equal to their principal amount, together with any interest accrued to but excluding the date fixed for redemption, or (B) if, and so long as, the conditions set forth in Condition 8(2) are satisfied, pay the Additional Amounts specified therein; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to such a requirement (i) which would not be applicable to a payment made by the Issuer or the paying agent, (x) directly to the beneficial owner or (y) to any custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner, or (ii) which can be satisfied by the custodian, nominee or other agent certifying that the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person, provided, in each case referred to in clauses (i) (y) and (ii), that payment by such custodian, nominee or other agent of such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement. The Issuer will make such determination and election and will notify the Fiscal Agent thereof (the “Determination Notice”) as soon as practicable and within fifteen (15) days therefrom give public notice of such determination to the Bondholders as set forth below, in each case stating the effective date of such certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement, whether the Issuer will redeem the Bonds or will pay the Additional Amounts as specified in Condition 8 and (if any) the last date by which the redemption of the Bonds must take place. If the Issuer elects to redeem the Bonds pursuant to clause (A) above, such redemption shall take place on such date, not later than one year after publication of the Determination Notice, as the Issuer elects by notice to the Fiscal Agent at least seventy-five (75) days before such date. The Issuer will promptly thereafter give public notice of redemption of the Bonds to the Bondholders as set forth in clause (A) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer will not so redeem the Bonds or permit redemption of the Bonds, as the case may be, if the Issuer subsequently determines not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption that subsequent payments on such Bonds would not be subject to any such requirement, in which case the Issuer will promptly notify the Fiscal Agent and will give public notice of that determination to the Bondholders at least fourteen (14) days prior to such redemption date, and any earlier redemption notice will thereupon be revoked and of no further effect.

A1-9

All expenses necessary for the procedures under this Condition 6(2) shall be borne by the Issuer.

(3)	The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may at any time purchase the Bonds in the open market or otherwise and hold or cancel them, except otherwise provided for by applicable laws and in the Business Rules.

(4)	Except as otherwise provided in these Conditions of Bonds, the Issuer may not repay principal of the Bonds in whole or in part prior to the maturity thereof.

7.	Payment

Payment of principal of and interest in respect of a Bond shall be made by the Fiscal Agent (in its capacity as paying agent) through the relevant account management institution (kouza kanri kikan) or directly to the Bondholders in accordance with the Book-Entry Transfer Law and the Business Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the time when the Fiscal Agent (in its capacity as paying agent) allocated the necessary funds for the payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds received by it from the Issuer to the relevant participants (kiko kanyusha) which have opened their accounts to make book-entry transfer of the Bonds at the Book-Entry Transfer Institution, the Issuer shall be released from any obligation of such payment under these Conditions of Bonds.

All payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds, whether or not on any Interest Payment Date, shall be made in Japanese yen.

If the full amount of principal of or interest on the Bonds payable on any due date is received by the Fiscal Agent after such due date, the Issuer shall, or shall cause the Fiscal Agent to, give public notice to that effect and of the method of payment to the Bondholders as soon as practicable but not later than fourteen (14) days after receipt of such amount by the Fiscal Agent. If the date of payment or the method of payment (or both) cannot be determined at the time of such receipt, the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent shall give public notice to the Bondholders of the receipt of such amount and of the date and/or the method of payment to the extent having been determined, and, subsequently, give public notice to the Bondholders of the date and/or the method of payment as soon as practicable after such undetermined items are determined. All expenses incurred in connection with the said public notice shall be borne by the Issuer.

No paying agent may be appointed by the Issuer in the United States or its possessions or make any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds within the United States or its possessions.

No payment of principal of or interest on any Bond will be made at any office or branch of the Fiscal Agent in its capacity as paying agent, any replacement Fiscal Agent or any other paying agency appointed by the Issuer outside Japan, nor will any payment be made by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in, or by check mailed to an address in, the United States or its possessions.

8.	Taxation

Any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds by the Issuer will be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge, of whatever nature, imposed or levied upon or as a result of such payment by or within the United States or by or within any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, except as required by law. In such case, the Issuer will pay to any Bondholder who is a non-U.S. person (as defined below) such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that every net payment of the principal of or interest on such Bond, after deduction or withholding for or on account of any

A1-10

present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge, of whatever nature, imposed or levied upon or as a result of such payment by or within the United States or by or within any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein will not be less than the amount provided for in such Bond to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts for or on account of:

(i)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between such Bondholder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Bondholder, if such Bondholder is an estate, trust, limited liability company, partnership or corporation) and the United States, including, without limitation, such Bondholder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having or having had a permanent establishment therein;

(ii)

any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise, wealth or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

(iii)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of such Bondholder’s past or present status as a controlled foreign corporation, personal holding company, a foreign personal holding company or a passive foreign investment company (as such terms are defined in the Code), as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax, or as a foreign private foundation or other foreign tax-exempt organization with respect to the United States;

(iv)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding from payments of principal of or interest (including interest on overdue principal, if any) on the Bonds;

(v)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds, if such payment can be made without such withholding by any of the other paying agents of the Issuer in Asia;

(vi)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge (including, without limitation, backup withholding tax) that would not have been imposed or withheld but for the failure to comply with certification, identification, documentation or information reporting requirements (including submission of a certificate satisfying the requirements of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.871-14(e)(3), and after the initial certificate has been delivered, an additional certificate (or certificates) satisfying the requirements of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.871-14(e)(3)) concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of a Bondholder or a beneficial owner of any Bond, if, without regard to any tax treaty, such compliance is required by statute or regulation of the United States as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or governmental charge; provided, however, that this shall apply only if such holder can comply with such certification, identification, documentation or information reporting requirements by the use of a procedure that is described in guidelines which have been established by the Book-Entry Transfer Institution at least 30 days prior to the time when such certification, identification, documentation or information reporting is required or that is

A1-11

otherwise developed and commonly used by participants in the securities market in Japan for compliance with such requirements;

(vii)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed on interest received by (A) a 10% shareholder (as defined in Section 871 (h) (3) of the Code, and the regulations that may be promulgated thereunder) of the Issuer, or (B) a controlled foreign corporation, within the meaning of the Code, that is related to the Issuer through stock ownership; or

(viii)

any combination of items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii);

nor will Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment of principal of or interest on a Bond to any Bondholder that is a non-U.S. person that is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such partnership or the beneficial owner would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been such Bondholder.

“Non-U.S. person” means any person who, for United States federal income tax purposes, is not (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation or partnership created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any political subdivision thereof, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source, (iv) a trust if a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust or (v) otherwise subject to United States federal income tax on a net basis in respect of a Bond.

(2)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and so long as a certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement with respect to any and all Bonds referred to in Condition 6(2)(II) would be fully satisfied by payment of a withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect, by so stating in the Determination Notice, to have the provisions of this Condition 8(2) apply in lieu of the provisions of Condition 6(2)(II). In such event, the Issuer will pay as Additional Amounts with respect to any Bond the Issuer determines to be subject to such requirement such amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made following the effective date of such requirement outside the United States by the Issuer or any of its paying agents of principal of or interest due in respect of any Bond of which the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person (but without any requirement that the nationality, residence or identity of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any paying agent or any governmental authority), after deduction or withholding for or on account of such withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge (other than a withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge that (i) would not be applicable to a payment made to a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner or that can be satisfied by such a custodian, nominee or other agent certifying to the effect that such beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person; provided, however, in each case that payment by such custodian, nominee or agent to such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any reporting requirement referred to in this Condition 8(2), (ii) is applicable only to payment by a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner to such beneficial owner or (iii) would not be applicable to a payment made by any other paying agent of the Issuer in Asia), will not be less than the amount provided for in such Bond to be then due and payable.

(3)	Any reference in these Conditions of Bonds to principal or interest shall be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amounts which may be payable in respect of principal or interest, respectively, under this Condition 8.

A1-12

9.	Exchange for Certificated Bond

(1)

Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled as provided in Condition 6, any Bondholder is entitled to submit a request (the “Request for Exchange”) to the Issuer in accordance with this Condition 9, to exchange any Bond held by such Bondholder for a certificated bond issued by the Issuer with terms and conditions substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached to these Conditions of Bonds (each, a “Certificated Bond”) (such exchange is hereafter referred to as the “Exchange”) on an Exchange Date (as defined below) with the delivery of a certificate for such Certificated Bond to be made by the Exchange Agent (as defined below) on the corresponding Delivery Date (as defined below) or thereafter.

The certificates for the Bonds (the “Bond Certificates”) are issued exclusively in bearer form with interest coupons (the “Coupons”) attached thereto, and shall not be exchangeable for Bond Certificates in registered form.

2.	Status of the Bonds and Negative Pledge

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may merge or consolidate any of its other Subsidiaries into or with another Person and it may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of its business in accordance with Condition 11. Furthermore, the foregoing restriction will not prohibit any issuance or disposition of securities by any other Subsidiary.

As at the effective date of the appointment, the replacement Fiscal Agent in respect of the Bonds shall succeed to and be substituted for the Fiscal Agent, and shall perform its duties and functions provided for in these Conditions of Bonds and the Fiscal Agency Agreement, with the same effect as if the replacement Fiscal Agent in respect of the Bonds had been named as the Fiscal Agent therein and herein.

EA-4

rounded upwards) of such offered quotations (disregarding two of the lowest and two of the highest of such quotations), as ascertained by the Issuer.

If on such Interest Rate Determination Date not less than two but not more than five Reference Banks provide the Issuer with such offered quotations, the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the same yield spread as the Book-Entry Bonds, which also appears on the face of the Bond Certificate, plus the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 5th decimal place with five or more in the 6th decimal place to be rounded upwards) of the quotations of those Reference Banks providing such quotations.

If on such Interest Rate Determination Date only one or none of the Reference Banks provides the Issuer with such offered quotations, the Issuer shall ascertain the offered rate (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest 5th decimal place with five or more in the 6th decimal place to be rounded upwards) for three-month yen deposits in the London interbank market which appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the London Business Day most closely preceding the relevant Interest Rate Quotation Date (or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page LIBOR01, or if Reuters Page LIBOR01 is unavailable on such date, on the most closely preceding London Business Day on which such rate appears). The Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the same yield spread as the Book-Entry Bonds, which also appears on the face of the Bond Certificate, plus such rate so ascertained by the Issuer, provided that, if such London Business Day falls on or before the preceding Interest Rate Quotation Date, if any, the Rate of Interest shall be the Rate of Interest in effect for the last preceding Interest Period.

After the determination of the Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, the Issuer shall notify the Fiscal Agent in writing of such Rate of Interest and the relevant Interest Amount Per One Currency and Interest Payment Date, whereupon, in no later than five (5) Tokyo Business Days following the commencement of such Interest Period, the Fiscal Agent shall make such matters available for perusal by the Bondholders at the head office of the Fiscal Agent during normal business hours. In such case, public notices need not be given.

(6)	Any Rate of Interest, Interest Amount Per One Currency or Interest Payment Date determined in accordance with this Condition shall in the absence of manifest error be final and binding upon all parties, including the Bondholders and holders of Coupons.

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation acts as the Issuer’s reference agent (the “Reference Agent”) at its head office in Tokyo, Japan in respect of the Bonds. Pursuant to the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Issuer shall entrust the Reference Agent with the performance of all of its obligations (other than those to give public notices) under this Condition relating to the ascertainment, calculation and determination of any offered quotation or interest rate (including, but not limited to, the Rate of Interest and the Interest Amount Per One Currency). The Reference Agent shall act solely as agent of the Issuer and shall assume no obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with the Bondholders or the holders of the Coupons. Any notice required to be given by the Issuer to the Fiscal Agent under this Condition need not be given if and so long as the Fiscal Agent and the Reference Agent are one and the same bank. The Issuer may from time to time replace the Reference Agent, provided that the appointment of the Reference Agent shall continue until the replacement reference agent is duly appointed. In such case the Issuer shall give prior public notice thereof.

Such period, however, shall not exceed the fourteenth (14th) day counting from the date on which a public notice has been given by the Issuer or the Fiscal Agent in accordance with the fourth paragraph of Condition 6.

Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption to the Bondholders and the holders of Coupons pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuer shall deliver to the Fiscal Agent a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer so to redeem have occurred and an opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing to the Issuer to such effect based on such statements of facts.

If the Issuer becomes obligated to pay any Additional Amount pursuant to Condition 7 and the Issuer is, in the opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing with respect to tax matters, prohibited by United States law from paying all or any part of such Additional Amount, the Issuer shall, as soon as practicable but not later than the fortieth (40th) day after (i) the occurrence of the events giving rise to the obligations of the Issuer to pay the Additional Amount or (ii) the date on which such United States law becomes effective, whichever is later, redeem the Bonds as a whole, but not in part, at a price equal to their principal amount, together with interest accrued to but excluding the date fixed for redemption (but subject to applicable United States law), upon giving notice to the Fiscal Agent in writing stating that the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amount and that it is prohibited by United States law from paying the same and stating in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise to such prohibition and setting forth the proposed redemption date. Such notice shall be accompanied by an opinion of an independent legal counsel of recognized standing, stating to the effect that the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amount and that the Issuer is prohibited by United States law from paying the same.

(2)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and so long as a certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement with respect to any and all Bonds or Coupons referred to in Condition 5(2)(II) would be fully satisfied by payment of a withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect, by so stating in the Determination Notice, to have the provisions of this Condition 7(2) apply in lieu of the provisions of Condition 5(2)(II). In such event, the Issuer will pay as Additional Amounts with respect to any Bond or Coupon the Issuer determines to be subject to such requirement such amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made following the effective date of such requirement outside the United States by the Issuer or any of its paying agents of principal of or interest due in respect of any Bond or Coupon of which the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person (but without any requirement that the nationality, residence or identity of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any paying agent or any governmental authority), after deduction or withholding for or on account of such withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge (other than a withholding tax, backup withholding tax or similar charge that (i) would not be applicable to a payment made to a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner or that can be satisfied by such a custodian, nominee or other agent certifying to the effect that such beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person; provided, however, in each case that payment by such custodian, nominee or agent to such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any reporting requirement referred to in this Condition 7(2), (ii) is applicable only to payment by a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner to such beneficial owner or (iii) would not be applicable to a payment made by any other paying agent of the Issuer in Asia), will not be less than the amount provided for in such Bond or Coupon to be then due and payable.

The Fiscal Agent on behalf of the Issuer shall prepare and deliver substitute Bond Certificates or Coupons to the holders of lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Bond Certificates or Coupons, upon application by any such holder which must be accompanied by a certified transcript of a decision of nullification of such Bond Certificates or Coupons; provided, however, that as to those Bonds or Coupons which have then matured, the principal or interest shall be paid by the Paying Agent without surrender of the Bond Certificates or the Coupons upon presentation of a certified transcript of a decision of nullification of such Bond Certificates or Coupons. Any Japanese court having jurisdiction over the place of principal and interest payment shall have jurisdiction concerning the procedures for the nullification decision regarding the Bond Certificates or the Coupons. If a holder of a Bond Certificate or a Coupon which has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated makes a request, for the purpose of obtaining a decision of nullification, for a certificate to the effect that such Bond Certificate or Coupon has been issued by the Issuer, the Fiscal Agent shall prepare and deliver such certificate. If it is possible for the Fiscal Agent to identify mutilated Bond Certificates or Coupons, it shall, upon surrender to it of such Bond Certificates or Coupons, prepare and deliver substitute Bond Certificates or Coupons therefor without requiring a nullification decision and destroy the surrendered Bond Certificates or Coupons.
