(d)		to advise the Lead Managers promptly, and to confirm such advice in writing (i) as to when any amendment to the Registration Statement applicable to the Notes shall have become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus for any additional information, in each case applicable to the Notes, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose (in each case to the extent applicable to the Notes) or of any stop order suspending or preventing the use of the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus or any issuer free writing prospectus relating to the Notes and (iv) of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Notes for offer and sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and to use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or notification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof;
(e)		if, during such period of time within six months after the first date of the public offering of the Notes, as in the opinion of U.S. counsel for the Managers, a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by any Manager or dealer, and any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with law, forthwith to notify the Lead Managers and upon request of the Managers to prepare and furnish, at their own expense, to the Lead Managers and to the dealers (whose names and

20 

addresses the Lead Managers will furnish to the Issuer) to which Notes may have been sold by any Manager, such amendments or supplements to the Prospectus as may be necessary so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, will comply with law; and in case any Manager is required to deliver the Prospectus in connection with sales of any Notes at any time six months or more after the date of the Prospectus, upon request of the Lead Managers but at the expense of such Manager, to prepare and furnish to such Manager an amended or supplemented Prospectus complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(f)		to make generally available to holders of the Notes and to the Lead Managers as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide the benefits contemplated by, the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Securities Act Regulations, and
(g)		to endeavor to qualify the Notes for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions, if and to the extent KfW and the Lead Managers have so agreed, and to continue such qualification so long as reasonably necessary for the distribution of the Notes and to pay all fees and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Managers) reasonably incurred in connection with such qualification and in connection with the determination of the eligibility of the Notes for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions as agreed between KfW and the Lead Managers; provided that the Issuer shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation or a dealer in securities or to subject itself to taxation or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.
3.		Free Writing Prospectuses.
(a)		The Issuer shall not, subject to § 1(c)(v) and § 3(b) of this Schedule, make any offer relating to Notes that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations), without the prior consent of the Lead Managers; the Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations with respect to any such free writing prospectus;
(b)		Subject to the last sentence of this § 3(b), the Issuer shall prepare a final term sheet (the “Final Term Sheet”), containing a summary of the terms of the Notes, which shall be in a form approved by the Lead Managers and shall reflect the terms agreed with the Lead Managers. The Issuer shall file the Final Term Sheet with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act Regulations within the time period prescribed by such Rule. These provisions shall not apply if the Lead Managers advised the Issuer on behalf of the Managers, prior to pricing of the Notes, that term sheet(s) will not be used in connection with the sale of the Notes.

4.     Agreements of the Managers. Each Manager shall not make any offer relating to the Notes that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations) required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations, without the prior consent of the Issuer; provided, however, that, unless the Managers have advised the Issuer pursuant to § 3(b) of this Schedule that

21 

term sheet(s) are not to be used in connection with the sale of the Notes, each Manager may, in its discretion, distribute one or more term sheets relating to the Notes containing customary information that is consistent, in all material respects, with the Final Term Sheet prepared and filed by the Issuer pursuant to § 3(b) of this Schedule. Any free writing prospectus (including, without limitation, any term sheet) permitted by the preceding sentence (i) shall not, as of its issue date and through the Closing Date, include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and (ii) shall not, when considered together with the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no Manager shall make any representation and warranty to the Issuer with respect to statements in or omissions from any such free writing prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with any (y) “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations) prepared by the Issuer or (z) information furnished to any Manager in writing by the Issuer for use in such free writing prospectus.

5.     Indemnification. The Issuer agrees to indemnify each Manager and its directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any Manager within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any affiliate of such Manager, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the distribution of the Notes in the United States (including without limitation the legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding or claim asserted) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Disclosure Document (as defined in § 3(2) of this Agreement and which term, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and other documents specified in such § 3(2)), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon Manager Information (as defined in §8 (2) of this Agreement) furnished to the Issuer in writing by such Manager directly or through the Lead Managers expressly for use therein.

Each Manager agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify the Issuer, its directors (or persons performing similar functions), officers and employees and other persons who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any affiliate of the Issuer, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer to such Manager, but only with reference to Manager Information (as defined in § 8(2) of this Agreement) furnished to the Issuer by such Manager in writing directly or through the Lead Managers expressly for use in the Disclosure Documents.

If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted in the United States against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying

22 

Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time after receiving such request to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Managers shall be designated in writing by the Documentation Manager, on behalf of the Lead Managers, and any such separate firm for the Issuer or its directors or officers who sign the Registration Statement and such control persons of the Issuer shall be designated in writing by the Issuer. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding in which it has elected to participate effected without its written consent, but if such a suit is settled with such consent or if any proceeding in which the Indemnifying Person, after having received notice thereof, shall have elected not to participate is settled with or without such consent or if there be a final judgement for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an Indemnifying Person to reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and (ii) such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

If, as a result of the distribution of the Notes in the United States and notwithstanding § 16(1) of this Agreement, an Indemnified Person cannot avail itself of the indemnification provided for in this § 5 in whole or in part, then each Indemnifying Person shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

23 

The relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Managers. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer, on the one hand, or the Managers, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, no Manager shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes subscribed by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Manager has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Managers’ obligations in this subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

The indemnity agreements contained in this § 5 are in addition to any liability which the Indemnifying Persons may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons referred to above.

The indemnity provisions contained in this § 5 and the representations and warranties of the Issuer contained herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Manager or any person controlling any Manager or by or on behalf of the Issuer, its officers or directors (or persons performing similar functions) or any person controlling the Issuer or signing the Registration Statement and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Notes.

6.     Sale in the United States. Each Manager agrees to notify Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, as U.S. counsel to the Managers, of the U.S. Sales Amount applicable to it seven calendar days after the Closing Date. The Managers agree to cause Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP to promptly thereafter report the aggregate U.S. Sales Amounts applicable to the Managers to Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, as U.S. counsel to the Issuer. For purposes of the foregoing, the U.S. Sales Amount applicable to a Manager shall mean the total aggregate principal amount of Notes initially sold in the United States by such Manager as part of its initial allotment.

Nothing in this Schedule 4 shall constitute a submission by the Issuer or any Manager to the jurisdiction of any court of or in the United States.

7. Stabilization

In connection with this offering of notes, the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it may purchase and sell the Notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short

24 

sales involve the sale by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it of a greater number of the Notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes while the offering is in progress.

The Stabilization Manager may also impose a penalty bid, which occurs when a particular Manager repays to the Stabilization Manager a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it has repurchased Notes sold by or for the account of such Manager in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

These activities by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the Notes may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it at any time. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

8. Interpretation

Notwithstanding that this Schedule shall be governed by and construed in accordance with German law, any terms used in this Schedule reflecting terms used in U.S. federal securities laws shall be interpreted according to the meanings attributed to them in such laws.
