The aggregate nominal amount of the Notes constituted by this instrument is limited to £30,000,000.
|
2.2

The Notes will initially be represented by a temporary global Note certificate (the "Temporary Global Certificate") registered in the name of the Registrar, acting in its capacity as Note agent for the beneficial owners of the interests therein (and such beneficial ownership and interests shall be recorded in a register maintained by the Registrar as Note agent for such purpose). The Registrar shall hold the Temporary Global Certificate for a period of forty days from the date of issue (the "Forty Day Period"), during which time neither the Temporary Global Certificate nor beneficial interests therein shall be transferable under any circumstances whatsoever. Any purported transfer of the Temporary Global Certificate or any beneficial interest therein during the Forty Day Period shall be null and void ab initio. Upon expiry of the Forty Day Period and receipt by the Registrar from each beneficial owner of an interest in the Notes of certification of beneficial ownership of the Notes by non-US Persons (which certification may be contained in a Form of Election or a TTE Instruction), the Temporary Global Certificate will be exchanged in whole but not in part for Notes represented by a definitive Note certificate (the "Definitive Certificate"). As soon as is reasonably practicable thereafter, the Registrar, acting in its capacity as Note agent, shall deliver one or more Definitive Certificates to the Noteholders in registered form in denominations of £1 in nominal amount or integral multiples thereof. Upon expiry of the Forty Day Period the Notes shall be transferable in accordance with schedule 2 and clause 4.7 of schedule 3.

Subject to clause 6, the Notes will rank pari passu equally and rateably without discrimination or preference as unsecured obligations of the Company and with all other unsecured indebtedness of the Company except to the extent provided by law.
|
3.3
|
The Notes shall be known as Floating Rate Loan Notes 2015.
|
4.
|
CERTIFICATE FOR NOTES
|
4.1
|
Upon expiry of the Forty Day Period and receipt by the Registrar from each beneficial owner of an interest in the Notes of certification of beneficial ownership of the Notes by non-US Persons (which certification may be contained in a Form of Election or a TTE instruction), each Noteholder shall be entitled to one certificate without charge for the total nominal amount of Notes registered in his name. Each certificate shall bear a denoting number, shall (subject as provided in this clause 4.1) be executed as a deed by the Company in accordance with its articles of association for the time being or in such other manner as may be permitted by statute, shall be substantially in the form set out in schedule 1 and shall have endorsed on it conditions in the form or substantially in the form set out in schedule 2. The Company shall not be bound to register more than four persons as the joint holders of any Note. Joint holders of Notes will be entitled to only one Note in respect of their joint holding and the Note will be delivered to that one of the joint holders who is first-named in the Register in respect of the joint holding or to such other person as the joint holders may, in writing, direct. Delivery of a certificate to one of such persons shall be sufficient delivery to all. When a Noteholder has redeemed or transferred part only of his Notes the old certificate shall be cancelled and a new certificate for the balance of such Notes issued without charge.

Every Noteholder any part of whose Notes are due to be repaid under any of the provisions of these conditions shall, not later than the due date for such repayment, deliver the relevant certificates for such Notes to the Registrars on behalf of the Company or as it shall direct. Unless payment of the amount due to be repaid has already been made in accordance with condition 4, upon such delivery and against a receipt for the principal moneys payable in respect of the Notes to be repaid, the Company shall pay to the Noteholder the amount payable to him in respect of such repayment in accordance with condition 4.

Any such amount so paid or deposited which remains unclaimed after a period of 6 years from the making of the payment or deposit, together with any accrued interest, shall revert to the Company notwithstanding that in the intervening period the obligation to pay the same may have been provided for in the books, accounts and other records of the Company.
|
6.
|
CANCELLATION
All Notes purchased or repaid by the Company shall be cancelled and shall not be available for reissue.
|
7.
|
INTEREST
|
7.1
|
Until such time as the Notes are repaid or purchased in accordance with these conditions, the Company will pay interest on the principal amount of each Note (subject to any requirement to deduct tax) twice yearly in arrears on 10 March and 10 September in each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date") in respect of the Interest Period (as defined below) ending on the day immediately preceding those dates, in each case only to persons who are registered as Noteholders at the close of business on the relevant record date, except that the first payment of interest in respect of any Note is payable on 10 March 2011 and is in respect of the period starting on the date of issue of such Note up to (but excluding) 10 March 2011. In respect of the Notes such period and each subsequent period commencing on an Interest Payment Date and ending on the date immediately preceding the next Interest Payment Date is referred to as an "Interest Period".
|
7.2
|
The "record date" shall mean the close of business on the thirtieth day before the relevant Interest Payment Date or, if such day is not a business day, then the next following business day and every Noteholder shall be deemed for the purposes of these presents to be the holder on such Interest Payment Date of the Notes held by him on such preceding date, notwithstanding any intermediate transfer or transmission of any such Notes.
|
7.3
|
If any Interest Payment Date should fall on a day which is not a business day, then for the purpose of the payment of interest and any other payments due to the Noteholder pursuant to condition 2, the Interest Payment Date shall be deemed to be the next business day immediately following such an Interest Payment Date. This provision shall not affect any Interest Period nor shall it affect the amount of interest (or any other monies) to be paid on any Interest Payment Date.
|
10
7.4
|
The rate of interest on the Notes for each Interest Period (the "Rate of Interest") will be determined on the basis of the following provisions:
|
(a)
|
on the date of the first issue of the Notes (or, if not a business day, the first business day thereafter) and on the first business day of each subsequent Interest Period for such Note(s) ("Interest Determination Date"), the rate of interest on the Notes for each Interest Period will be the rate per annum calculated by the Company to be the higher of zero and 0.25 per cent. below Six Month LIBOR. "Six Month LIBOR" is defined as the rate per annum for the six months corresponding to the relevant Interest Period quoted at or about 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the applicable Interest Determination Date that appears on that page of the Telerate Screen which displays British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rates for deposits of such amount as the Company shall determine having regard to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then in issue in pounds for such period (such page currently designated as page 3750) or if such page or such service is discontinued, such other page as may replace page 3750 on that service or such other source as may be nominated by the British Bankers Association for the purpose of displaying British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rates for deposits in pounds sterling; and
|
(b)
|
if on any Interest Determination Date, the rate of interest cannot be established in accordance with paragraph 7.4 (a) above, the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be calculated by reference to such rate as the Company shall determine on the basis of quotations made for six month deposits of a similar size and currency in any such other inter-bank market or markets as the Company may select and, if a rate of interest cannot be established in accordance with the foregoing provisions for any succeeding Interest Period, then the rate of interest on the Notes for such Interest Period shall be the same as that applicable to the Notes during the previous Interest Period.
|
7.5
|
The amount of interest payable on a Note shall be calculated by applying the Rate of Interest to the principal amount of the Note and multiplying such sum by the actual number of days in the Interest Period concerned divided by 365 or, in the case of an Interest Payment Date falling in a leap year, 366 and by rounding up the resultant figure to the nearest xxxxx. The determination by the Company of the Rate of Interest and the Company's calculation of each interest amount shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and binding.
|
7.6
|
Interest on such Notes becoming liable to repayment shall cease to accrue as from the due date for repayment of such Notes unless (and subject to compliance with the condition 5) payment of the monies is not made by the Company in which case interest shall continue to accrue until, but not excluding, the date of actual payment.
|
7.7
|
Any interest which remains unclaimed after the period of six years from the date of first payment shall revert to the Company notwithstanding that in the intervening period the obligation to pay the same may have been provided for in the books, accounts and the other records of the Company.
|
8.
|
REDEMPTION IN DOLLARS
A Noteholder may, by notice in writing to the Company given at the same time as any Notice of Repayment given pursuant to condition 2.3 elect that the principal amount of the Note(s) the subject of that Notice of Repayment shall be redeemed in US dollars in which event the Company shall on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the "Redemption Date") and in full discharge of its obligations to repay such Note(s) pay to the Noteholder an amount in US dollars obtained by converting the principal amount outstanding of such Note(s) in US dollars (at Barclays Bank plc's spot rate for the purchase of US dollars with sterling certified by Barclays Bank plc as prevailing in London interbank foreign exchange
